Some emails I want to save to my computer so that i can view them without opening up my email. I used to be able to do this by saving to a documents folder as a text file. (Outlook express). I do not find this capablity in Thunderbird. if it is there, I have not found it.

File|Save As gives you several options. By default it will save as a .eml file, which will need an email client to view. You can usually save by drag-and-drop, but that creates an .eml file too.

You can save as HTML by putting in an html file extension when doing File|Save As.

This add-on:

gives you multiple options for saving one or more messages in various formats.
