Help Moving Emails

[spezzer]

Android 4.4.2 Email is driving me crackers!

I have a bunch of emails in my sent folder that I want to transfer to my PC and save in Outlook - its a vital record of a house sale and cant for the life of me transfer from the sent folder to anywhere, let alone my PC. I've googled loads and seems impossible. I switched from POP to IMAP with the hope it would mirror folders on the PC browser view but not a chance - seems the android version is hard-wired with just the folders you get - like it or lump it. I cant even back up to a seperate folder. Phone is Huawei P7 but pretty sure its an Android issue.

Help?

Login to your email account on a PC browser. You should be able to do as you wish

all of my email stuff is in the cloud on Yahoo.....
I have detailed emails from my accident lawyers from 10 years ago stored there.

as a side note. that lawyer one day, about 4 years into the lawsuit, asked me if I knew what someone said about 'xyz' and did I keep a copy of that email?

I did, and he was astounded.... I had it all. I never throw anything away if it is remotely serious.

I have outlook running on my PC that connects to my One.com accounts, the same as my android does. The sent emails only appear in the sent folder on my android because that's where they were sent from - and don't appear anywhere else. When I sent them the android was set up using POP and only switched to IMAP in an effort to fix the problem.

All my history is in outlook on my PC which mostly works ok and have years of emails. The problem occurs when I send from Android.

Hi, with my HTC mail app if I open an email in my 'Sent' folder, I have the option to forward it.

If you have that option, send it back to yourself and pick it up on your PC.

Yea I have that option - figured it was a last resort. Ideally would like to shift all 65 sent emails to Outlook but will probably use that method for vital few emails.
