[Outlook] Packaging an email into an .eml?

I received this question:

"I know that in Outlook in addition to forwarding email, the entire email can be attached or enclosed as a “yellow envelope” somehow. When recipient clicks on yellow envelope, the enclosed email opens up. I accidently did it once but I don’t remember how I did it!"

Does any know how to do this? I believe the user means to turn the forwarded message into am ".eml" file (that's the yellow envelope he is referring to) and then send that as an attachment in a new email message.

Thanks for any input.

In Outlook 2010 on the Home tab under the "Respond" section there is a drop-down labelled "More". With an email highlighted, click on this and select "Forward as Attachment". Presto, the email is attached to a new email as an EML file.

In 2007 you can create a new email and then just drag the email over into the body from your mailbox.

Works in 2003 as well and obviously later versions.

Drag and drop should work here. You may even drop it in WE, making a new .eml file, which you may keep separately (for whatever reason) or attach to any new mail.

Keep it simple, it'll become complex by itself...

Thanks. Drag and drop seems to do the trick. I passed it on to the user and I got no more complaints, so it must be OK! Thanks to all.
