Snuffy,

You're welcome. :-)

I hope someone else can help you with that, as I have no access to, nor any
idea how Yahoo's webmail works.

Having said that, there is a program that can help you to automate
repetitive actions on a webpage.   The program is (quite apropriatily) named
"AutoIt".  If you can't find an exporting function for Yahoos webmail it
could probably not hurt to take a look at it.

Regards,
Rudy Wieser

Thanks very much, Rudy!!  Very simple and works great!!

Now on to step 2... I can select all the emails on a page...  Can I forward
them as a batch to my non-yahoo account, either by exporting as a file or by
email?
