This is a great suggestion to automate what I was doing with "normal" filters and manual transfers before but it's not exactly what I meant. In OE I actually removed the relevant .dbx folders and stored them separately on my hard drive. The idea was to keep the email program smaller and hopefully less prone to corruption. I generally do not have to refer to emails older than 6 months (but may have to store them for legal reasons). Could I do the same, ie moving a folder from documents & settings / application data/ The Bat/ Folder X to another spot on my harddrive without affecting the working of TB? Could I if necessary put it back at a later stage? Is any of this necessary or are you guys all happy with quite a number of big folders within TB. Thanks Roelof re the max size 2GB, now I know when to start making arrangements for splitting or moving folders . -- Tom using TB 3.65.03 on XP ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.71.03 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
