Hi, Emptying the deleted items folder and deleting messages from the sent items folder is a good idea.
However, moving messages from the inbox to another folder probably won't help improve Outlook performance much. That is because if you simply move items from the inbox to another folder, the items are still contained in the same Outlook PST file. This is different when compared to Outlook Express which uses different DBX files for each folder. In Outlook, you may want to consider archiving some items which moves the items from the outlook.pst file to the archive.pst file. You can choose all items older than a specific date. After you delete items from the sent items folder, archive older items and empty the deleted items folder, you should then compact the outlook.pst file that was outlined in a previous message. I hope this helps, Ryan -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Annette Sent: Sunday, January 06, 2008 1:00 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] outlook sluggish problem Have you cleaned out your deleted items folder lately? If not, do so. Do you keep a lot of old messages in your Inbox? If so, set up folders and move messages you want to keep into the folders. Have you cleaned out your Sent items box recently? If not, move what ever you want to keep into folders and delete the rest.
