if you use a client like thunderbird or outlook, it will automatically download your messages. Those programs don't work with Yahoo though.
screenshots will take forever. You would be better off saving your messages in plain text on your computer than taking a screen shot of every email. Plus the message scroll, so it would be multiple screenshots of one message

sure you could do a screen shot.
the "print screen" key
then open a graphics program and paste it in there,
but it is only a picture. you won't be able to open mail or navigate.
yes, he's correct. highlighting and copying the text of each email into a nice big doc file would work, but extremely time consuming. and you might read some email by accident and ruin the surprise on the plane
you could use a pop3 mail server and use Outlook express to download your email onto your computer. done deal.
I'm not sure how to do that with Internet mail sites. It depends all on what website you use for your email.

I am not sure what exactly you mean, but, you can hit your "print screen" key and then open Paint and paste the screenshot to a bitmap (picture) file.
There is probably a shareware program to save as pdf...not sure. Do some searching.

I recommend you to use either Thunderbird or Outlook instead of taking screen shots. I believe that you can download all emails before your traveling. Moreover you save your replays, then later on the application will send them automatically when your connected to the Internet.
Hit: type "Thunderbird download" in Google.

Click on the File menu on the menu bar and select save as. You would of course have to be connected to the internet in the first place in order to do that, though.

My cure has been to just forward all of my Yahoo Mail to myself using my Outlook Express. Next, before you leave just receive all of your incoming mail using Outlook Express. Then you can look at it all while you are traveling and not connected to the net. I just think this is easier for me rather than converting files. Good Luck!

if u have office 2007 all u have to do is File->Print,,, and the name of the printer would be Adobe PDF. the page becomes a pdf file.
with office 2003 u would need a pdf writer.

You can use YPops for your email. It allows you to download your email from Yahoo to Microsoft Outlook or any other email reading application.
You can also get PDFCreator convert your emails to PDF.

Yes, Go to file> Save as then save as a "web archive single file". If you just do save as it will try to go online to recover it.
