I find myself in a legal situation in which I need to prove that I sent
e-mail to someone and to prove the date and contents therein.  I need to
know how tp save sent mail to disk.   Please respond ASAP.  This is an
urgent matter
Thank You 
Pam McAfee

I just Bcc the mail to myself, that works. I suppose you could fake
