Hello Ian, This is what you said on Fri, 26 Jun 2009 21:56:55 +1000 your time:

Okay, I follow your logic, but then how long does a message stay "current" before it is flagged for archiving? And do you manually or automatically archive? Or is it archiving rarely done but often thought about ;-) > Now this is not because I used Outlook or Outlook Express. I have > NEVER used them. It just seems to be a logical way to set folders up. Yeah, sorry about that. It does sort of read like I was suggesting that only Outlook and OE users would stoop to such a practise. > It is a bit like having folders off My Documents to store other data > files. Some have them all off the root folder. Again, I had a "documents" > folder off the root folder with my data folders off that "documents" > folder long before it ever became a standard with Windows. Good explanation. I actually loathe and detest the My Documents folder, but then that's not the point as I completely see where you are coming from :)) > In the grand scheme of things, it does not matter what you do as long as > you have some logic behind it. Yeah, true enough. Whatever works for you is about right. > Having related folders grouped can make things easier when it comes to > searching or backing up. [...] Indeed, and sadly I'm a bit of an 'organis-a-holic' so the depths/levels to my related folders often become quite unwieldily....I do have to rein in and simplify. My wife says it's a curse...on her! lol -- Simon (Privateofcourse) #10340.
