Hi tracer,

On  14 January 2000  at  23:26:57 GMT +0700 (which was 16:26 where I
live) [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote and made these points:

I try to keep each folder to <2k messages each. When one exceeds that,
I  create a sub-folder named "To dd-mm-yyyy" in a sub-folder "Archive"
and move the messages there and start over. Unless I do that, it takes
an age to click into a folder with >2k messages in.

t> I just wonder how long it takes to open the BAT.

Well,  as  Steve  Lamb  once  pointed  out, TB opens quite fast .. < 5
seconds.  The  message  counting  and indexing is done as a concurrent
task  which  I  just  about  ignore  (because the rest of TB is up and
running  and  fully  usable)  but,  even then, it all takes only about
20-25 seconds max.

Manually. :-)

Cheers,
Marck
