Ummmm maybe setup the filters in Outlook first? Plus also maybe train them that email does not equate to storage and that if attachements are needed to be kept then perhaps they need to be saved or the mail archived, as even in Outlook it will get slow if they allow the pst file to get too big - especially when loggin in and out.

It's a good organization and I don't charge them anything. However, in the last few years, this non-profit has grown tremendously. And so has the size of their mailboxes. They've got some huge ones now. It's putting quite a strain on my server, and they are complaining about slowness. I've tried the suggestions in the 'performance' faq, they didn't help. I think it's this darn mbox mail format my server uses that is really the problem. So.... I need to get this organizations mail off my server. They want to use Outlook. So that's what we're gonna do. Downloading all their emails into Outlook is a pretty simple thing. Just enter the appropriate info into Outlook and connect up. However... all the mail, the In folder, Sent folder and any other folders they have created, all downloads into the Outlook Inbox. Is there a way that I can migrate their email into Outlook and direct mail to the correct Outlook folder/box? Thank you for any assistance you can provide :) Chris ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: GoToMeeting - the easiest way to collaborate online with coworkers and clients while avoiding the high cost of travel and communications.
