Christine, have you not discovered OUtlook Express Message Rules yet?
Outlook Express can be just like a little secretary sorting your mail to the
right folders as it comes in if you set up the rules for it to do so.
I am subscribed to about 30 lists from various places, but my mail never
gets snarled, because OE directs each message to the folder I've created for
each topic or group. That way I can read things leisurely and according to
my own priority.
Shall I send you a tutorial I just wrote for a friend? It contains .gif
screenshots so I can't send to the list.

Hi Bob,
I too am using Blackboard for these two classes. I was confused before
about the options to either log in at their site or have my email forwarded
to my regular email account which I use OE for. I think I have it straight
now. I prefer to log in each time and go to their webmail site so I do not
have to look through my regular email each time. At first I had it set up
to be forwarded and did not like it and I had my outgoing smtp set up wrong
in my OE. I was getting errors all the time. We also are using an
electronic filebox I had to set up and am hoping I did it right allowing
access for them to see my files. I have not uploaded anything yet there but
intend to later today. I am now trying to configure Webdrive and am
confused about that. They gave me instructions but I am a little confused
one one thing on that too.
What do you teach btw?
christine
