[amibroker] Efficient use of Email Messages

Hi Jim:

Not to keep this going too much longer, but these final thoughts:

I use Outlook and each line in the subject lines contains a "paperclip"
symbol if the message has an attachment.  If I wanted to only read
messages with attachments, this would let me go right to it.

Someone said they doubt that everyone reads every post...I only wonder
how one tells a "good" post from a "bad" post.  If everyone was
religious about altering the subject line to match the content of the
message, then this might work, otherwise, I "glance" at each message.
Some authors and some subject lines deserve reading every one, but it is
not hard to go thru all of the messages....

Saving "key" messages (special, special key messages get an exclamation
code mark on my system) allows one to go back for review at a later
time.  Some authors rate their own folder on my system (Dimitris is one
of those).

Anyway, it sounds like Tomasz thinks this is still the best way given
the negatives of all of the other alternatives.

Ken

Thanks for your thoughts Ken.
I have a 60 gb hard drive and a 30 gb hard drive slave.
That wasn't the point. It's the time required to filter through all 
the e-mails in order to not miss an attachment.
Regards
Jim
