I am currently using Outlook Express to handle my POP3 mail however I
sometimes use Outlook too!

There are times when I want to export certain mail in a batch and save them.
Is it possible writing a script for Outlook Express to batch export mail and
save them each with a filename format of (YYMMDD_HHMM, year, month, day,
hour, minute - date-timestamp of the email ofcourse)??

If it is not possible under Outlook Express, is it possible under Outlook? I
have programmed Excel VBA before, so how easy would it be to program for
Outlook or Outlook Express? I have Outlook 97 but never seen any VBA
interface.
 
You're rite outlook 97 doesn't have VB editor. Having used Outlook 2003 I'd
say yes its possible to export the emails with dated filenames.
 
Even though Outlook 97 does not have VBA built in, it can still be automated with the Outlook object model by writing code in Word or Excel's VBA environment or by running VBScript code.
