I went and looked at this shareware program and saw that it requires
FileMaker Pro and runs on OS9 Is there an e-mail archiving program available
that is OSX native and will work with Entourage X and MS Word X? I don't
need a fancy one I just like to archive my folders every couple of months.
I have previously been dragging the folders to the desktop but unfortunately
all the dates are then gone when doing this and makes searching for a
particular difficult as all e-mails in the folder will have the same date.
Thank you
