I usually download at least two hundred messages per day, using my BN running 
6.11.  I do occasionally save messages in folders I've created, but usually I 
exit out of a message and mark it for further action.  When I have all my mail 
either sorted into folders or marked, I go to the action menu and move them to 
the trash folder.  This is because deleting them one at a time will eventually 
cause Keymail to lock up for between ten and thirty seconds before it lets me 
move to the next message.  It only takes around twenty or thirty seconds to 
move over 100 marked messages to the trash folder.

Hi All,

How do you all manage your email on the BN?  For, maybe I'm just lazy, but I
mostly just go through my messages one by one, and then either read them or
delete them right on the spot.  And, should I be expecting any message that
I know I'm going to want to save, then I take the necessary steps to make
sure I receive that email on my computer.

I know the manual recommends making ones own folders for email; but, unless
I'm in the midst of replying to or composing a message, I usually don't keep
anything on my
PK all that long, mostly just time enough to read and delete.

Now, in handling my email this way on the PK, I'm getting to feel quite
comfortable with downloading say seventy or eighty messages at a time, or
maybe even up to a hundred and ten.  But, doing much over that at one time 
tends to make
the reading and deleting process start to get kind of sluggish, and thus
usually not worth the
risk of possibly
causing
my PK to have problems.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks.
