Shannon, the magnificent!  

Who's email do you have to search and why?  If it's your own, I'd think you 
can get away with using a modern mail client to filter your mail by group 
then archive it all by year, quarter or whatever is practical.  From there, 
the old wetware will direct you to the likely hit and grep or any other 
search tool will take you the rest of the way.  If you have to, you can make 
new mailboxes for each condition you work on and use your condition report 
database to narrow things down.  If each case in numbered and your condition 
report database has enough keywords, you are set.  If you have to organize 
everyone else's life .... my head explodes for you.  What is really going on 
here?
