Here's an extra tweak: use the +label gmail hack (as suggested if setting up gmail as a notebook e.g. http://g04.com/html/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=52): 1. Set Mail.app to send instead to yourname+mailarchive@gmail.com 2. In gmail, create a Contact of that name ('yourname+mailarchive@gmail.com') 3. In gmail, create a Label called 'mailarchive' 4. Set up a rule to filter incoming mail from that Contact to that Label (tick the box to bypass the inbox) Result: a searchable archive of your non-gmail that doesn't clutter your gmail inbox. Add label:mailarchive to the searchbox to limit your search to this subset of mail. @Peter: Harddrives die. Google (if their plans work out) never will. » POSTED IN:
