My preferred way of working is to have a Custom View show me messages that have arrived today (and are not Junk, etc.). This is where I spend most of my time. When I have dealt with a message, I don't want it to appear in this list any more, so I've also created a category "Dismissed" which I assign to any message that I've taken care of. The Today Custom View also does not show me messages that have the category "Dismissed".
This works well for me. But I've discovered one inconsistency that I don't understand. Often in the morning I'll find messages in this view that were received yesterday. At first I thought maybe this is because I work on a PowerBook and never turn it off (I just put it to sleep at night) and so I also rarely quit Entourage. So I tried quitting and relaunching Entourage, but this didn't fix it. The messages that are dated yesterday do eventually disappear from the Today Custom View, and it seems like this is because if some action I take, but I haven't been able to figure out what it is. Does anyone know what might be going on here? I've got to tell you -- the speed of Custom Views (especially for purposes like this) and the flexibility of Custom Arrangements combine to make a mighty efficient and powerful system of email management. -- Sherman -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
