I was tempted to use the archiving solution like CTRL+A, [SHIFT]+[DELETE]. ;-)

I used to be that person myself, but I decided to give one of the organizing systems a try and it really made a difference. At the moment I have 20 items in my Inbox but shortly I'll have that pared back down to the usual 2-3 items. Everything else gets dealt with, delegated, deleted, flagged and/or filed. </soapbox> Ben M.

I've got users with 2-3k e-mails per folder and no performance issues. 8,000 is rather excessive, and obvious causing a problem. It's ultimately going to depend on everyone's specific hardware as to where the line needs to be drawn. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Michael B.

They have about 8,000 e-mails in the Inbox; (that is way to much) How much e-mails should be in the inbox, if so I will set up mail folders for each year, but how mail should I place in each folder Thanks _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/read/?forum=exchange To subscribe: http://e-newsletters.internet.com/discussionlists.html/ To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe via postal mail, please contact us at: Jupitermedia Corp.
