An Outlook user asked about an annoyance: “When are they going to fix the bug that prohibits saving a graphic embedded in an email? Now I have to copy it, paste it into a graphic program and save it that way.”

It’s fixed in Outlook 2010, but that won’t help anyone with older versions of Outlook. You can use File, Save as to save the entire message in HTML format. This will create an HTML file and a matching folder on your hard drive and all images will be saved in it.

See Tip 713: Save as HTML folder from earlier this year for information on managing the HTML file and matching folder.
