You do indeed now have OE 5.01 ,, Congratulations. Using OE ver. 5.01, the messages in a digest can be extracted as individual, stand alone messages by double clicking (a MUST) on the digest in the preview pane, (do not use the paper clip to open). ,,, in the window that opens, highlight all messages at once then drag&drop them into any folder, (You MUST Drag&Drop, do not use save, Save As or Copy to). You can now deal with them as separate individual messages, just like all the other messages in your Inbox. If you do not want to mix the digest messages in with your regular Inbox messages, create a folder just for the digest ones.,,, When you double click on the digest, you may have to move the screen that opens over to the right to uncover your regular folders.
