Yep. That's why I hadn't ever tried using it for email before. I get a lot of mail everyday. But what does freeing the database do? What exactly does it eliminate? It doesn't do anything to saved emails in folders, does it? And can email be deleted from the system folders, like sent, received and all? I hadn't checked that out yet, but the thought just came to me. I always delete my sent items regularly on the PC and the deleted items are automatically deleted when I close outlook.

It is one of the querks of this particular operating and e-mail system. Hopefully, the new upgrade will alleviate this. Remember, this is a personal data assistant that means that it is not really meant to be carrying around tons and tons of e-mail messages. Mary Ellen Earls Remember!
