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

[Chuck Lewis <clewis@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm CURRENTLY using Netscape Communicator but became aware yesterday
that I COULD do all of this through Outlook. Still doesn't solve the
"convert to database" question - doesn't ANYONE else have a need to have
a searchable database of this information outside of e-mail ?

Thanks for the Outlook info though !
