Dear All,
Clients gave hundred of emails in .msg format to be translated and delivered in .rtf file.
The only way to do it fast is using software called total mail converter.
I am wondering if there is a faster way of converting it without using the USD 59 software for hundred of emails that contains few non-english text to be translated.
I am just wondering how to do ot without manually saving it as rtf that is time consuming.
Thanks a lot for any feedbacks.

Hikmat

you could try this Jan 27

'It is sometimes desirable to transfer large numbers of emails out of MS Outlook
and store them onto one's hard drive. That's easy enough to do - drag and drop
them from Outlook into Windows Explorer. But what if you wanted those
proprietary .msg files converted into something more portable?

That's where this program comes in. It will convert the *.msg files that have
been stored on your harddrive into *.rtf (rich text) - preserving the markup,
hyperlinks, and even embeds the original attachments into the .rtf file.

I use this in a batch file at work which is scheduled to fire every couple of
minutes. Users simply copy their .msg files to a special folder, wait two minutes,
then pick up their newly converted .rtf files -- no software to install!

Requires MS Outlook 2007'
