Hi Tessa,
Where do you get this program?
It sounds interesting. I've never heard of it.
Have a blessed day,

Subject: [GWN] Interesting email item
First, let me admit that I try to never throw anything out, well email and
document wise that is. This means that I have scads of email. Rather than
save each as a txt file I've often used the program dbxtract to download
items from my computers inbox and save them as eml files. After a little
experimenting it appears that if you do this you can then access those
files using the bs plus. I haven't played with this enough, so use at your
own discression, and if my bs inbox suddenly goes critical I'll know I
goofed big time LOL.
Anyway heres what I've done.
1 use the latest version of dbxtractancexe to extract email from oulook
expresses inbox.
2 copied some of those emails into a folder which I called extras just for
the heck of it.
3 copied that folder to the bs email folder.
4 opened the email program, at which point my original emails which were
already present on the bs were loaded into the inbox.
5 I hit the f 2 key went to the inbox folder and then hit enter on my
extras folder.
6 what this appeared to do was replace or upload the contents of that
folder and disappear the previously loaded inbox items. Needless to say
their was a moment of panic at this end.
7 I was able to move up and down in these messages and open some, unlike
the storage box which doesn't seem to let us open messages.
8 I returned to the folders using the f 2 key again and hit enter on the
inbox and I have my original messages back, thank goodness LOL.
Now, this might not be of any value to some, but if you're a dbxtract user
you might find knowing this handy. Also if you think this is going to bite
me do let me know. I haven't fooled with it enough to know whether or not
I'm creating a whole heap of grief for myself LOL.
Anyway I thought I'd share.
Tessa
