Hi Hope,
You can create a folder and name it saved items or whatever you want.. Then
to move messages to that folder you would do control-shift-v and make sure
you are on the right folder with the arrow before pressing enter.
Control-g is go to folder. Control-y shows you all of the folders in your
e-mail. You can also save messages in a folder called drafts if you already
have that.
hth,
Sue S.

Hi!
I tried control G and it did not work. Did I do something wrong? Also, what
is an easy way to save messages in outlook express to another folder?
Thank you
Hope
