RE: Converting Messages into Some Sort of Database...

What e-mail package are you using? I've moved from Exchange to Outlook
Express to Outlook 97 to Outlook 98 between 3 machines and never lost a
message. You should be able to do the same in most e-mail systems. BTW the
move to Outlook 98 was also a move to NT on my notebook.

Subject: Converting Messages into Some Sort of Database...


Hi Folks,

JUST wondering (as I prepare to move to my 5th PC/3rd notebook in 3
years...); has ANYONE come upon a way to turn message "threads" into a
database ?  I tend to keep a TON of messages from this list, divided up
and saved into folders by area or something (i.e. Client Access,
Languages, etc.) because there is a TON of good information provided by
this list and if I don't need it today, I'll need it next week, next
month, etc PLUS this is a good list of INVALUABLE contacts :-).

It is getting to be more and more of a hassle to be moving e-mail from
one computer to another (ESPECIALLY with my current move being to
NT...).

ANYONE else done this, have any ideas, seen any tools ?

Thanks in advance !!
