You might also want to consider putting your mail archives into something like MailSteward. I keep everything more than 12 months old in my MailSteward database, and I update it at the end of every finical year. So right now, my Mail only has email from 30JUN10 and forward. Keeps it nice and trim and quick. And if I need to lookup some of the older mail I go into MailSteward. cjc On 27/07/2011, at 11:04 PM, Neil Laubenthal wrote: > You should at least give Mail a try to see if it meets your needs.
