Hi,

I have around 8000 plus emails in my Outlook Express 6 Inbox and around
10000 plus in the Sent Items. I use an IBM thinkpad P4 CPU with Windows
2000
Server as the OS.

Many a times while searching mails or opening the Inbox I get an in
sufficient memory error and only 4000 or 6000 mails are displayed. Have
to re
start the machine for all mails from the Inbox to be displayed.

Would like to know the following:

1) Why is this happening? Is this a hardware, software or OS error?
2) whats the solution, can outlook express handle this large size of
emails
or should i migrate to MS Outlook?
3) Can i set a Message rule that all messages I send automatically get
copied to a new folder which will reduce new mails in the Very huge Sent
Items folder?

Please guide.

Kind Regards,
Akshay.


To answer your Questions:

1) User error.


That's extreme. The error is that OE can't handle the huge amount of
information, so the user needs to be aware of that, but don't blame the user
for not knowing ahead of time, as OE gives no warning as to its limitations.
