John:

Please describe the process you used with your old Mac.
Are you talking about the individual e-mails that come to you in feed  
mode?  This is the way I receive the messages of this list.  I can  
save them to any folder in my Mac, just as I can save any other text  
document.  The method is basically the same for any Macintosh or any  
version of the operating system.  The details of exactly how the  
process works may be different between the old and the new OSs.

I am using Leopard OS X 120.5.2.  With the e-mail/message open, I go  
to the File menu and select Save As.  A box opens up, presenting the  
name of the e-mail in the Save As line, and a Where selection which  
defaults to my Home directory.  I click the arrow at the right of the  
name of the e-mail so that it points up.  This shows a list of folders  
in my home directory, including the Documents folder.  This is where  
all your text files should go.  In there should be a folder named "G4  
File" if you like.  Select that and hit the Save button.
