Sun,
you can.

I saw an article online explaining how to do that but I wasn't quite sure what Shuffles really wanted or needed so I did not post the link.

But, yes you can is what I discovered.

WHY would anyone want to keep that many old messages? I don't keep anything older than thirty days in my inbox.
If I want to save content from anything I simply copy it and paste it onto a WORD FILE and then save that into a folder I created on my desktop.

But, that is just me.......

Have a great EASTER NewSun!!!!!

micro...

Vgolf,

I think what Shuffles is concerned about is the fact that if his e-mail file gets too large, there is indeed a tendency for it to get corrupted. I know I have experienced this with Outlook at work and we are advised by our IT department to be aware of this tendency and to watch the size of our folders and keep them under 500 meg.

Shuffles - I know how to create separate personal files in Outlook to help manage the size of my Outlook files, but I don't use Outlook Express so I don't know how or even if you can do that in Express. I bopped into Express for a couple of minutes to see if the same way would work, but I don't know if not having it set up affected what I could or couldn't do or not. But couldn't see a way to do there what I do in Outlook. I'll do some research this weekend and see if I can find the answer to that.

Sun :-)
