Re: TB lagging?
Hello MFPA, This is based on the method suggested to me on this list 2 or 3 years ago by MAU. Thanks for the acknowledgement, but I got the idea (if not the exact method) from someone else.

I don't understand that. Ticking Use folder specific deletion settings is needed so that the deletion options are available to use. You then specify what those settings are. The messages more than your stated number of days old will be purged from the folder and you want them moved to an archive folder, not put in trash or simply deleted. You could put the destination folder for your archived messages under normal deletion instead of under alternative deletion and not tick Use alternative deletion for purging this folder.

This depens on the Performance of the System, in earlier times i once imported 65000 Mails which has been famous this time and TB worked slow but still working.

That way, they are always easily to hand when you are using TB! but never actually get loaded unless you enter the password to go into the archive account. This is based on the method suggested to me on this list 2 or 3 years ago by MAU. - Archived_Messages account duplicates the folder tree structure of my main account. Actually, it just duplicates the folder I want to archive. - In the Properties/General of each of the folders of my main account that I want to archive, I tick the option 'Keep messages in the base for (days)' and enter the number of days. - In Properties/Deletion, I tick the 'Use folder specific deletion settings' option. - Then, for 'Alternative deletion' I select 'Move to the specified folder' and, of course, I browse to select the corresponding folder in the 'Archived_Messages account'. - And also tick the box for 'Use alternative deletion for purging this folder'. - And in the Properties/Additional tab under on exit I tick both Remove old messages and compress the folder. As I have said, I do this for each the folder I want to archive. Now, when every night I close down TB!, the 'old messages' in each folder are automagically moved to the corresponding folder in the Archived_Messages account. What's the benefit of doing this? Well, as I said at the beginning, the Archived_Messages account is password protected. When you start TB, it will not open any password protected account and 'waste time' in opening each of it folders. Only when I need to find an archived message will I select my Archived_Messages account, enter the password and open it. One other thing I do to easily remember which folders I have set up for 'automatic archiving' is to assign these folders to an 'Archive Colour Group' (blue in my case). This way, I can easily see in my folder tree which folders have an corresponding archive one. If your sent messages live in the default Sent Mail folders, a slightly different strategy is needed because the Sent Mail folders don't have half of the required options available in their Properties dialogue. To get around this, I simply have a common outgoing filter that copies all outgoing messages to the Sent Mail folder in my Archived_Messages account. The original account sent mail folders are set to keep messages for N days and to remove old messages and compress on exit. My Archived_Messages account contains over 120,000 messages and sits at 2.15 GB with no performance hit on TB! -- Best regards MFPA A nod is as good as a wink to a blind bat!

TB lagging?
Hi, I've noticed this ever since I upgraded to version 4 and it's not a constant problem, but often enough that it's really annoying. When I switch from one message to the next, or from one folder to another, or hit delete (or pretty much any command), it can take up to 10 seconds before TB responds. It's gotten to the point where I'm so frustrated with this, that I'm contemplating another email client, and I've been happy with TB for ages (since version 1). No other programs on my pc are affected, this can happen even when cpu usage is at 2%, and I have no other programs open.

Another problem might be cause by your anti-virus scanner: When you access a big file (like messages.tbb) it gets scanned on-access and that takes time. So, you can exclude the mail folder from the on-access scan. Oh, and the limit for messages.tbb is 2 GB. TB! will send you a warning when you come close to that size.
