Isn't there anyway you can export the files or copy them to keep them on your local hard drive?
Plus if you're having that many emails come through yoru inbox and you don't expect them to dwindle you might want to get a new email address with a program that allows you better management of your emails and switch over to that new address and clean up outlook express when you have time.
Seeing as it's Microsoft, it's probably not easy as they want to lock you into their software
Its easy to back them up, their all saved in this one massive file and I turned compression off so they weren't encrypted in case I needed to recover them or transfer computers
Also Yahoo see to have given me a shiny new 100 meg inbox, its soooo shiny, can't get it to download the e-mails into OE quite yet, but I need to change my pop settings and restart
Yeah, I checked my yahoo inbox to day and noticed it went from 6 MB to 100 MB. Very nice. My total mail went from 40 something percent of my total allowed space to 4 percent just like that.
I just hope their not doing what google is doing and just not telling anyone, thats my only concern
They are telling people. When I first logged in I was redirected to a screen that explained the new services and features. There was also an email in my inbox explaining it all over again.
Not quite what I meant, I meant like the Google Mail which electronically reads all your e-mail kind of system...
Ahh, I see. Yeah, I'm not too sure about that.
Oh well, doesn't matter for now
I would rather use IE than use Outlook, so that's saying a lot. Figure out a way to export your mail into a format some non-sucky program could read, would be my advice. It has to be possible, even for Outlook. Even if you have to download some mail client just so it can import the exported mail and then export it again to some other nice format.
