4. Right click on email & click “Compress [email name]” and a compressed version will be saved. 

   

5. You can now upload the compressed file to CLASS
6. Note that if you need to review the files please un-compress them first
   1. this is done by simply downloading the file 
   2. going to where the file is stored
   3. double left clicking on it

Alternatively, print to PDF and upload the normal way.
