Interesting.  I'll try that today.  Thanks Allen.  I wonder if having two
identities will indeed allow one of them to operate faster since
theoretically it will only need to access a smaller database.  Also wonder
at what point the Archives identity will become unmanageable.  I realize
this will vary by machine and RAM, but I've found that there is a limit to
the amount of messages that one can drag and drop to the desktop and then
reimport or burn on a CDR.  Ultimately it can become quite a time intensive
process...
