Why use Outlook PST file as your long term storage? Then you have to copy that file around when you switch computers and sometimes Outlook goes all wack-job on you and you have to mess with the PST file a bit. They also get too large and stop performing. GMail will allow you to store just about all the email you will get in a very very long time (some mailing lists excluded). It also has a MUCH faster and better search. I use to keep PST files but I found that I was only keeping mail in Outlook "in case I needed to get an old email for some reason". GMail is way superior for this type of archival. -Cameron -- Cameron Childress Sumo Consulting Inc http://www.sumoc.com --- cell: 678.637.5072 aim: cameroncf email: camer...@gmail.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:294238 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
