Well I'll have to back and look at your settings to see if I can set something up to track. It would be interesting. Most of my volume of storage comes from only a few lists. TB lists are one group. I keep all of them for a resource because I occasionally go back to look for answers. This is the main reason why I think the ability to save a search would be beneficial. IIRC it saves the last 9, but if your looking a lot 9 doesn't get you to far. Others on the list use another app that IIRC is Mail Bag. Maybe it is a matter of principle but my old email program VA could save searches, and I like to stay in the same application. Anyhow on this P4 2.4 Ghz 500MB Ram PC I ran a manual test on time the other day with not much change in the mail base. It took a little over 20 seconds to 500 + MB. When I do the 500 + MB from scratch it is about 10 minutes using 7z format. Thanks for the info. -- Best regards, Greg Strong TB! v1.63 Beta/11 on Windows XP Service Pack 1 ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.62r | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
