Exporting ALL emails in MAil to Text at once?

[thenewguy]

I know you can "save as" a single message as a text document. But how can I do this for all the messages in my mailbox at once? Can I specify the title? (like: sender, subject)

thanks

Just go into the mailbox you want to save messages from, enter Command apple A (or Edit > Select all), and then click Save As and choose the file type you like + where you want to save it.

I tried that, but it ends up just saving the very first message and no others.

Actually I take that back.

It does save them all......as one ginormous text file!

anyway to make it have each email be seperate?

Only way I could think of is to use Automator, not sure if that would work either.

Maybe someone else knows...
