To be honest, I have just a few folders to store various project weekly status reports, but I follow the same approach as you do by archiving emails into a single 6-month archive .pst file. I use Windows Desktop Search to find any emails by various keywords and it is fast enough for my purposes. I also really like the search feature on the iPhone 3.0 OS that searches through all of your current emails on your Exchange server as well as contacts, apps, etc. Ted – isn’t that the best feeling when people come to you for information because you are known to be well organized?

I've already incorporated some of the suggestions successfully, such as incorporating meta information into subjects. My very busy boss responded to an e-mail much sooner than usual when I entered [Decision Needed] as the first part of a recent message. I also enjoyed the discussion about how/where to save e-mails. Even with Outlook, I've found the search capability good enough, and I simply move all e-mails and sent items in monthly files, about two months after the end of the month. I never waste a moment trying to decide what folder I should use to store an e-mail or whether or not delete an e-mail. A colleague suggested this approach long ago and it works great for me. You can usually remember enough to do a successful search. Others often come to me looking for old e-mails because they know I can find them. Thanks again for a great podcast.
