how do i save multiple e-mails with the same subject line

we as a company get lots of "chain" e-mails from other overseas colleagues
etc regarding any particular project. All of theses e-mails will have the
same subject line etc and all need to be filed in the central job folder.

When I try to drag & drop, the system wants to over-write the previous
e-mails which is a no no.

Is there any way that these e-mails can be automatically differentiated with
date or time etc?

You need to do that by code. This sample saves incoming e-mails immediately:

Replace the ItemAdd event by this to save the one selected email in a
folder; for calling the macro you customize the toolbar and add a button to
it:

Public Sub SaveSelectedEmail()
Dim Mail as Outlook.MailItem
Set Mail=Application.ActiveExplorer.Selection(1)
SaveMailAsFile Mail, olsaveAsMsg, MAIL_PATH
End Sub

The path in MAIL_PATH must exist already.
