Outlook search and Copy... Dave Ashe 06-09-2006

Hi All -
I need to perform a search, and have the results copied to a folder in a
pst.
My current process os to execute the search, select several pages of
resulting e-mails, then drag and drop them onto the destination folder.
The search comes up quickly, and the actual copy operation is also quick.
But, the lag between the "drag and drop" operation and the start of the
actual copy is relatively long - on the order of minutes, and seems
proporational to the number of e-mails selected.

Does anyone have a trick to get it to go faster?

Dave

Setup an Outlook rule that moves the email you found to the folder you want
based on your search criteria, then choose Run Now at the end of the setup
process. that seems to work fairly fast, although in your case i don't know
if the speed is constrained by network issues, drive issues, or what...

hth,

ilya
