Outlook 2010 export emails to msg files

1

In Outlook 2010 we're trying to export GDPR confirmation emails. When selecting all emails and dragging them to a folder on the desktop, the mails stop copying at 129 items. I was not able to find a source why Outlook or Windows behaves this way.

It's also not possible to export to msg, only to pst, xls and Access. I did find however a lot of tools that can convert pst to msg but none of them were free.

Is there another way to do this?

Dragging the messages out of Outlook into a folder creates .msg files. Have you tried this? – music2myear – 2018-06-12T15:43:58.933

Yes, but they stop at 129 items. – user2827958 – 2018-06-13T06:35:37.690

Can you select a message in the message list, then go to File > Save as to save the mail as .msg? – Yuki Sun – 2018-06-13T07:02:16.953

@YukiSun No, only to txt – user2827958 – 2018-06-13T12:42:45.547

What if dragging fewer messages each time instead of "selecting all"? – Yuki Sun – 2018-06-14T01:46:18.243

@YukiSun That is an impossible task if we have more than 6000 emails. The chance that some will be forgotten is very high. – user2827958 – 2018-06-14T06:34:32.917

@thims This does not work in a domain environment. – user2827958 – 2018-06-19T06:52:07.537
