Default Bug: Printing multi-selection of messages does not work


WinXP Professional SP2
OE6 6.00.2900.2180 (xpsp_sp2_rtm_040803-2158)

Printing multi-selection of messages causes only first message printed.

Any estimate of release of a fix?

Best regards,

Miika

It's always worked that way. You can qeue them up in the spooler, but you
can only print one at a time. A workaround if you don't need the header
info is to select a group of message, selecting Message/Combine and Decode
and then printing that message, but you probably won't like the result.

I need this feature regularly.

Is there any reason why this behaviour couldn't be changed to work properly
in near future?

I can list quite a number of other multi-selection non-functionalities in
Windows XP SP2 related to opening and printing files.

Don't expect any changes to Outlook Express.

The development team is working virtually exclusively on Windows Mail, the
replacement for OE in Vista. They did just issue a fix for some problems on
WinXP SP2:

All you can hope for on OE is bug fixes.

As a workaround, try saving them outside of OE as eml files (just drag them
to a directory) and then see if you can print them multiply from Windows
Explorer.

Nice idea, but this doesn't work either -- Windows Explorer hides
print-command from menus for *.eml files.

Very often "direct" printing of files does not work from Windows Explorer --
this functionality depends on application.

Very often opening multiple files at same time from Windows Explorer only
opens one file -- again, this depends on the application, not Windows.
