Hi Son, My experience is that it is equivalent in size, I have been converting several people from outlook to TB and it does not make it bigger or smaller. for that reason you may want to break your inbox in several sub-folder First, check if you have deleted your spam in the junk folder folder and the content of the trash you may find that it reduce the size you. You can also right click on each folder and use the compact fonction, that will significantly augment the speed of operation and may slightly reduce the size of the profile If you are using linux and gnome, you may also consider choosing a different email client such as evolution, which integrate nicely with the Gnome Desktop. If you are using KDE I've heard good thing about kmail. hope it helps
