When I save copies of mails to my documents, they are saved as .html. How can I save them as .eml?

They are created as .html, but I have assumed that this was just to allow more fonts & formatting to be used

Thanks for this, it does the trick, although it's a bit cumbersome in that if I want to save a copy of a message that i have sent, I have to send it first, then go to "Sent Items" and do the CTRL-S procedure afterwards.

I imagine that this is a bug in the system which will be resolved eventually
