Bootable CD == no problem.

Save email onto the CD == no can do.

That would require a CD-RW

There does not exist any CD-RW software for DOS... hence the 'no can do'.

If you want to burn the emails onto a new empty CDR disk... no problem.

We _can_ do that in DOS.

But you won't be able to put them onto the same disk that you booted from.
