Yes. While I always enjoy divergences in learning and working styles, I 
clearly am in the group of "don't get it". Not to knock it or your 
experience of it. I just make sure mail gets to it's appropriate folder 
and then my job is largely done. If it's bold, it hasn't been read. And 
if I get more mail than I can respond to at the moment I give it a call 
back priority and sort it up later. Or I use the find window.

My goal is toet my database ready to host my email client. That way all 
my contacts history of contact are really in one place.

Of course, it occurs to me that there are a plethora of email scripts 
available that I also don't get and therefore do not use. I did query of 
some on the list some time ago that this would be a great use of a QT 
video on someone's desktop of actually walking through some of these time 
transmorgafying events such as using the log file or using some of the 
AppleScripts. I think I pretty much got shot down at the time becasue 
they just could not understand my point - or just didn't have the time.

Making no apologies for it, some of us are just very visual in our 
learning processes. It's difficult to comprehend a procedure, no matter 
how many times it is described until I can see it done. And understanding 
it can only come after trying it out on my own a few times.
