Thanks for your mail, Sebastien. I have formed a file tree structure below/within "inbox". The files structure looks something like the following where each tab across the page represents another subdirectory:
Inbox BHome Build'gCntrl Greet'gs Plann'gOff Products Busn's 2 Busn's Advertis'g TouchLocal BusinessAdvice BusinessLink Hants Somerset South Wessex Wilts Business Linx BusiZone EUDirectives Finance Banking GovtGateway PayPal FSB CoC Gov'tDepts ... and so on. Clearly I have only shown an example here but there are 11 main sub-directories and each may have several sub-branches. When an e-mail comes into the inbox, a rule may be applied to it (if it is from a regular source) and it will then be grouped with other similar subject headings or sources in one of the many subdirectories. Although Outlook has other problems and trying to archive it or (worse) recover it from a failure is well nigh impossible, it does actually manage the structure I have applied, fairly well. I hope this clarifies my problem. I use this system, as I mentioned before, so that I can immediately keep tabs on the various threads of my business interests/activities. Clearly, with the amount of spam that finds its way even the most arduous filters there is still a load of junk in the inbox but I can generally deal with this after I have checked through any of the folders that are shown in bold type, since this is where the important stuff has been filtered.
