Thanks for suggestions here, BUT on Notes 9.01..

HCL Notes/Domino 8.5 Forum (includes Notes Traveler)

Subject:

On Notes 9.01 (my life now), the changes altogether gives this (when re-open these into Notes:

Field 'dspDaysOfWeek': Incorrect data type. Time/Date expected

Bogged down the error cause, and found that the ExportToEML is not to precise in amending details of the Mail Fields:

DeliveredDate

PostedDate

etc

It turns out, a plain EML (SaveAs) from Notes, appends this string to each NotesDateTime item:

type=400;

so I decided to re-work the code, and now it works reasonable (on Notes 9.01 Client Windows):

You can grab it form BELOW, I hope
(POSITION YOURSELF IN INITIALIZE section of Designer, after Create Agent).

It still requires a Form with a certain defined field (MIME), so there you go.
Some better programming, like these wishes, is still pending:

Position to Folder, save in Notes.INI (as the 'FileDlgDirectory' variable)
Better Error handling, instead of treating everything as File Open issues (it could be triggered by Object errors, too)
Re-work the Date prefixing the Filename, to be: YYYY-MM-DD ...
Ensure the filename is not exceeding maximum length, around 180 (can't remember) for Windows (7 and onward)

Cheers & Merry xMas from Denmark

TIP from:
http://searchdomino.techtarget.com/tip/Exporting-email-from-Lotus-Notes-to-EML-messages
by Arthur Turner
Suggested amendmend, to include suggested Filename from the content, too. Now corrected to incl. backslash after folder
and also added a Experted Field, to be used when re-opening an EML file after Export:
dspDayOfWeek within Memo/Reply form expects a Notes Date/Time field, but the imported one stores it as Text !

Michael Carpentier's suggestion here (added to GetBoundary):
