Save Email & Attachments

Save Email & Attachments

Save Button Behavior

The main Save button uses your configured Default save action. This means the first click can save the email and attachments immediately, save only the email, save only attachments, or open the selection dialog, depending on your preference.

You can change this behavior anytime in Settings. This is useful when you usually save the same type of content. For example, if you mostly save complete email conversations, choose Email + attachments. If you usually store only received files, choose Attachments only.

The Save button menu still lets you choose a different action for a single save operation without changing your default setting.

Available default actions

  • Save email + attachments - saves the email message and all attachments.
  • Save email - saves only the email message.
  • Save attachments only - saves only attached files.
  • Select items to save - opens the selection dialog so you can choose specific items and rename them before upload.

Select Items to Save
