Marek, I have set up two virtual folders for incoming and outgoing messages during the last day across all acounts - thanks for your tip.
Just wondering how I can keep this "for the last day"? It does not seem to drop the older ones? Is there any specific expression I have to use so that only those messages new are kept and those older than 24 hours are being dropped or is there any easy way to refresh manually?

I have almost 200 real folders and approximately 5 virtual, one displays all todays messages (accross my account), one displays messages from my company (which are normally filtered into many folders), one virtual folder displays messages sent to me in maillinglists etc. Very useful feature.

Thanks Marek, but what is the advantage compared to having the messages filtered to a "real" folder?

Virtual folder displays links to real messages only, so You set filter and messages matching this filter will be displayed in such folder.

I am trying to get my head around using folders and/or Virtual Folders and despite looking through the helpfile I am confused. What exactly is the difference and how do you use them in practical terms?

I am running several different accounts that my have incoming or outgoing information re shipments. It would be nice to have them all collected in one spot, so that if I had to search for an email it would be easier. Should I use a folder or virtual folder for this purpose? I suppose I can apply filters at the originating inboxes and relay to either, so what are the differences, advantages or disadvantage of one or the other?
Any help will be appreciated.
