in total:

Sent Items: 8542
Inbox: 132
(I sort my mail with folders like "nanog, pho, important, friends, etc")
All other folders: ~60,000

I don't delete mail and that's a about 4 years worth...

I currently have 910 emails in my sent folder. But it's somewhat irrelevant, since I sort most of my outgoing mail into other folders.

Total mail: 158,052 messages.

(As you can guess, I don't wipe out most of my old mail).

about 1000 in a folder from failed signups, emails wrong in form, for free hosting. About 80 percent attempts at making warez accounts.

Anyone know how to save my messages with OE?

I have 230 in my sent items box, but I clean it out pretty often and sort to other folders.

Go to Tools > options > Maintenance Tab...

Click the Store folder button and see where the files are currently stored, then go to that directory and copy all the files in it to a disk/cd/etc... Or you could set it to store stuff in a different directory that's easier to access. I always point mine onto my 2nd partitioned drive. That way when I reformat I still have my messages on the 2nd. Had to do that twice now. It's nice not losing a gazillion e-mails.

Yah... messing around with my comp a couple of months ago, I had to reformat just to get it working again, and I had no access to Windows... so there was no option to backup. I lost A LOT a emails, and some important ones that come back to bite me now. All that's done now though, and nothing like that will happen again.

I dont know how many are "sent emails", but I do a cleanup every 3 months, and keep potential relavent emails (sent & recieved) in a backup folder. That backup folder has 15,373 emails....and all the rest of my folders combines are 3,147. Uhh, now that I added those up I am thinking maybe I should go ahead and do a cleanup tomorrow.....or soon....so total 18,520. Hmm, maybe I could delete some of the really old ones since the oldest email I have in backup is from 5-14-99.

So what were the rest of you doing the day I decided to start backing up my emails? LOL

Maybe I should do some more cleaning......I can't even backup my emails on one CD-RW, need two of them :mad:

I think Carlos needs an additional hard drive to store all his emails and 4 CD-RW for backup :D

I want to keep the Trash messages from the last 3 months, in case I have deleted something I should not have deleted.
