I recently assembled a new PC. The m/b utilities disk included Norton Internet security 3-months subs/
I have noticed that OE is very slow (5 to 10 seconds between clicking and the new log or messsage being displayed) switching between mail logs or opening messages. I uninstalled, wiped and reinstalled OE and noticed it went quite fast until I imported back all the mail logs.
I have quite a lot of old mail.
It seems to me the slowness is a combination of Internet Security and big old logs.
With my "My Documents" I archive old docs away into a separate directory each year, so I can open them or recover from archive disks if necessary, without clogging the current directory. I don't see a way of archiving mail logs on OE though I've done it on various work systems.
Any suggestions?
