if you have just been replying to each other without deleting the messages you have replied to and outlook express is set to include original when replying, then the last message sent between you should contain all previous messages in reverse order. you will find loads of greater than signs there in this case however but there are free programs such as Email Stripper that can get rid of these signs while keeping the messages.

Hi Ray, Thank you for your reply. I may try your suggestion, however, I am not certain that I have "show message in reply" checked, and I am not certain that the person I have been coresponding with on the thread concerned has it checked either.
