Often. Very often. I regularly search keywords. Over the weekend i was
looking at fiber conversations from when people started running fiber 2-3-4
years ago. I use it often. Did I say often? :)
Same with our business - i am regularly referencing accounts and info from
pre-powercode days. Using an email search
Granted on windows mail it can take a while. There are two searches - one is
an "indexed" search which is supposed to be quick but i've found is only about
20% accurate. I'll typically use it first. The advanced search (ctrl-f i
think it is) will find every friggin thing ; sometimes it will even find false
matches.
I often find myself finding one or two hits that are "relevant", i'll then
read that message, then read the whole thread by subject.

How often do you guys go back and find something from your 40-90 gigs of
email? When you did need something, how successful were you at finding
it? I gave up trying to keep everything after realizing that I almost
never wanted anything older than 6 months, and if I did then it took an
inordinate amount of effort to find it.
I sort important things into folders....if I didn't sort it then it
probably wasn't important. Everything in my inbox older than 6 months
gets deleted.
