I do indeed. I don't regard email archives as particularly safe places to store info I want to refer to later, especially with the random corrupted messages bases I've run into occasionally. I keep my attachments in separate folders (I wish this were the default setting for TB) and I save emails with tips and such in separate files where my OS can deal with finding them (and quite a few of your previous emails are stored there). With TBUDL, I try to rely on the archives rather than on my own saved emails.

It's true that it's not a lot of bytes and I probably shouldn't even think about it, but what about all the followup discussion this has caused? <g> For the same reason I usually try to refrain from being too much of a wiseass on listservs, but sometimes it just gets away from me... -Mark [EMAIL PROTECTED] Using The Bat! v1.60h on Windows 2000 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 2 ________________________________________________________ Current Ver: 1.60m FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Bug Reports: https://bt.ritlabs.com
