Thanks for the help.  My big problem with 1) is that I have a total of
125,000 people on my list, so it may kill my RaQ.  The problem with 2) is
that I've spent the last 3 yrs adding filters and building macros which are
based arounf outlook express and microsoft access etc and have about 500,000
emails in my OE folder so don't really want to fiddle with it too much. If I
can find out if there's a setting somewhere so I can raise the 512 to 1000
or so that wuod be very helpful.
