 I use Outlook at work...Submitted by The Virtual Ranger (not verified) on August 31, 2006 - 1:59am.
I use Outlook at work like everyone else. Our system is set up to autoarchive every month or so. I keep a lot of my information in Outlook and much of my stored filing is essentially found in my Outlook archive folders. I have used Copernic Desktop Search for a year or so as it was the only search tool that also searched on remote network folders (as my archives are not local to my PC). I don't know if that is still the case. One problem with that was that when the autoarchive took place, Copernic lost the files as they had moved, although it knew what was in them and with a bit of detective work it was possible to track them down by hand. I am now using CDS 2 (beta) which somehow seems to have solved that problem, and is much better at making sense of the network's inscrutable activities. » POSTED IN:
