Hello all, Well like most of you I have tens of thousands of mails just sitting around. I don't want to get rid of them, however as I'm using iMap I know that they can sometimes cause a heavy load when large folders need to be downloaded or synced.
The way I've done this till now is to create a smart mailbox and move everything that's older than 18 months in there. Then once a month I simply archive this folder. However, this has one drawback in that if I want to re-import (does this word actually exist?) messages back into the original place they came from it won't work. I could, of course, simply copy folders from point a to point b on either my server or local machine and then delete old/unwanted mails but frankly that's too much like effort. So my question is do others have different strategies for doing this?
