Saved messages Ski <nospam[ at ]nospam.com> 24.09.2006 11:16:23 I save copies of certain Outlook messages in special subfolders within "My Documents" and I delete the original messages. The saved messages (thankfully) still contain their original attachments. Where are the attachments stored?

Re: Saved messages "Céline Brien" <celinebrien[ at ]laurentides.qc.ca> 24.09.2006 14:35:58 Hello, From the tests I made, I conclude : When you save an Outlook message in the msg format, the original attachment is save in the msg file.
