hello,
Wouldn't it be simpler to have a folder created on a compact
flash or SD card to store all these messages you want to keep?
Having so much in the E-Mail folder may cause your flash drive to
crash, then it's possible you'll lose everything you've filed. I
use a 64 mb compact card solely for messages from my inbox. Your
folders can have the same names as those in your E-Mail folder
and can be sorted either alphabetically, numerically, or by date.
And your E-Mail will always download swiftly.

Usually, it would take that long because I had three or four
hundred Emails stored in other folders in Keymail. Even though I
knew perfectly well this was a bad idea, I love to collect, and I
was pretty bad at making myself delete stuff. [LOL!] I still am
now that I have an mPower, I currently have close to three
thousand Emails stored in Keymail, and it's behaving amazingly
similar to my classic. [Grin.]
If I started with an empty Keymail database, things did, indeed,
go much faster, and I could download three hundred Emails in less
than an hour. This wasn't often the case, though, so I was
almost always resigned to a long wait. [Grin.]
Thanks for making these good points, you're awesome!

I am surprised by this message. Before I started using my
mPower, I used a classic. It would take me maybe 30 minutes to
download that much E-mail. I can't imagine it take three hours,
without questioning my ISP, or looking at the connections.

Yes, with a classic, 350 messages in four or five hours is pretty
normal, unfortunately. I got around some of this by downloading
some of my mail, around 100 messages or so, pressing escape to
interrupt the download, pressing y to abandon the current
operation, reading and deleting as much mail as possible, then
going and getting another batch of 100 messages or so. Keep the
database space freed frequently. Also keep in mind that, if you
store a lot of mail in folders in Keymail, this will slow down
the whole process. This is because Keymail has to sort through
all the stored mail every time you add to the database.
HTH.
