My MS Outlook 2003 inbox is out of control! How to best manage e-mails?
A couple things: 1) Use folders under your inbox – You can create folders under your inbox to hold emails on various topics. Using topic folders would allow you to use Auto-Archive to archive those emails into various pst files. 2) Use filters – Outlook has filters that allow you route incoming emails into folders in your inbox. So you could set up filter rules to route emails from specific people or with words in the subject into folders. This would allow you to see folders with unread emails on various topics. 3) Use Synctoy ( a Microsoft addon) to auto-backup your pst files to another hard drive or computer.
