RE: how to browsed thru archives of this list

1. Sorry about that - I was using a funny name for MS Outlook. Within Outlook, you have an option called archiving, which I have set up as follows:
2. Create a rule that moves all mail received in my Inbox from "root_at_fatcity.com" to a folder called "Lyris" automatically when any mail comes in. (This keeps the lyris mail separate from any other "business" mail, for ease of reading)
3. Right mouse button on the Lyris folder, and choose properties. Click the tab "AutoArchive". This will give a number of options for archiving mail in this particular folder.
4. Click the radio button for "Clean out items older than" and set it to "3" "days".
5. Specify the location of where I want to save all of the emails. The file will be a *.pst file - mine is called "archive.pst"

Using this, you don't have to save each mail individually, all mail is just stored in the one file. If you want to check for subjects etc. from past postings, you then simply run File -> Import and Export, and add your search criteria. Outlook will then search for any mail with a particular keyword, sender etc. and import them in to your current folder.

2) Do you see a login dialogue on this page (E-mail address & password..)? If so - just above this there is a paragraph with a hyperlink "sign up here". Click that go through the rigmarole, and your in. You can use this site to check all archives, top posters, top subjects etc. It's a pretty handy site sometimes..

Mark,

1. What do you mean by "Look-Out" archiving? Do you mean to say that you save the email as File Save into your hard drive each and every mail, that is the ones you are interested in (if this is the case, well I will like to save all emails basically, you never know what you are reading today may be useful tomorrow)
2. I went to the site that you listed, but it does not give me any option to create a login account for archiving.

Please show me the light!

TIA Raja
