Think twice about using Outlook Express. A couple of months ago, I reached my limit in size with Outlook. Couldn't even open it. My computer guru told me that Outlook has a limit and once you reach it, you may be able to open it again with a special program that allows you to pare down your total inbox so you can at least open the program. But it didn't work for me. He said that's the dirty little secret of Outlook Express. I'm now a True Believer in Gmail. You can import your emails into Gmail (though I don't know about folders). And when you reach its free limit (I haven't yet, and I save everything) you can buy more memory. And you can access all of your emails from any computer, unlike Outlook Express. I'd say, "Run from Outlook Express." I was depressed for days to have lost - who knows? - thousands of emails. (Thank goodness at least TIPS has an archive. Thanks, Bill!) That said, there are amazingly efficient supports and help groups for gmail, so I'm betting if you ask, you shall receive.
