Thanks Tore. I'll look at it. Even so, I am pretty sure I need to bypass Outlook and work directly at the mail server level. Too many emails and doing it via Outlook doesnt seem like the most efficient way. But I will check it out just in case - you never know!

>>>Are you talking about a Windows server? In that case I do not recommend that you let the server do the job. I have learnt over the years that Windows servers should have as few services running as possible. A few weeks ago I saw the server room of Canon Norway, and they had 54 (!) servers running for that reason. One service or one job = one server.
