1411688 2015-11-21 22:36:00 Is there a way to save or copy a Thunderbird email, in such a way that it can be pasted or saved on another computer? I have been searching without luck. Am I asking the wrong questions?

I need the header and the body of the email; which is an extortion attempt.

File -> Save As -> File (Ctrl-S)

"Forward As -> Attachment" will preserve the original message headers, a regular Forward won't.
