Re: Bat folder size question
Hello Lukas, I actually started using TB myself because Outlook Express started behaving increasingly strangely as I accumulated larger amounts of e-mail (300MB, 20,000 messages). I haven't had any problems with TB in that regard. Tuesday, April 1, 2003, 3:49:49 AM, you wrote: LL I have been using outlook Express, and it's choking on the amount of data in LL my folders.

Bat folder size question
Hi folks, I have a question regarding folder size limitations in Bat! A friend who recommended Bat told me that there are no real limitations, but I can't find anything on the Ritlabs site regarding this, or maybe I'm looking in the wrong places. I have been using outlook Express, and it's choking on the amount of data in my folders. Outlook 200 does the same thing. I have come to rely on Outlook Express as a record keeping package, and would hate to give that up by pruning things. 2nd question, will Bat import Outlook Express 6 folders?

There is nothing regarding this because there's no limit. A folder begins to slow down a bit once there more than about 12000 messages in there, although some of my archive folders have more than 2 messages. Once a folder fills up, you can always hive off older messages into a sub-folder. The search facilities are superb and let you scan sub-folders in a sweep.

I believe it will, although you may have to import them in fits and starts - TB won't choke on holding the data but has been known to gag on large / large quantities of OE folders. - -- Cheers -- .\\arck D Pearlstone -- List moderator TB! v1.63 Beta/7 on Windows 2000 5.0.2195 Service Pack 2 ' -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1rc1-nr1 (Windows 2000) iD8DBQE+iX84OeQkq5KdzaARAt0rAKCD/ljlEeOUAElpSl446aladmR9NwCgiRwx Wuu9Fm6Ilx8GS7YLQGDb9Jc= =y8Pm -END PGP SIGNATURE- Current version is 1.62 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
