CLEANING AND COMPRESSING YOUR MAIL DATA
This is an important part of your email management. When you no longer need an email, it should be deleted. When you first delete an email, your software will send
email to
Trash Bin. Your email is not actually deleted until you first empty your trash bin.
Emptying your trash bin compresses
mailboxes from where
email was originally filed. This is absolutely paramount to
protection of your email data. If you go too long between compressing your email data, then your email data could become corrupted and you might need assistance in recovering your email data.
Even after you have emptied your trash, Compressing Folders is a recommended step to prevent other data corruption. Once you understand that an email does not actually move from one folder to another until
folder is compressed, then you can better appreciate this advice.
As an example, when Email A comes into your main Inbox,
data connected to Email A appears in two files. One file contains
header and body of
email. The other file contains only
email header information.
When an email is moved from one folder to
other, only
header information is actually moved. The body information will not be deleted from
original folder until which time
original folder is compressed.
This explains
purpose of emptying
trash AND compressing folders. If
email was simply moved from
Inbox to another folder, then emptying
trash is not enough. The original placement of
email is not actually removed from
file that contains
body information until
message has been designated for compression.
To empty your trash:
OUTLOOK EXPRESS: Click on Edit - Empty 'Deleted Items' Folder. To compress
remaining folders, click on Tools - Options, then click on
tab for Maintenance. Then click
button that says, "Clean Up Now". Once
compression is completed, click OK.
EUDORA: Click Special - Empty Trash. To compress
remaining items that need compression, then click on Special - Compact Mailboxes.
NETSCAPE MAIL: Click on File - Empty Trash Folder. To compress
mailboxes, click on File - Compress Folders.
I cannot stress enough how important it is that you utilize
tools for emptying
trash and compressing
mail folders. Protecting your email data on a regular basis is good practice for avoiding disaster in your mailbox.
So many of us rely upon our email software to keep our online business running smoothly. Once you master
tools provided in your email software, your online business will run smoothly also.
Let me share one important lesson I l've learned about computer software. One should never be afraid to try new things. Learning how to get
most out of your software relies upon your willingness to dig in and learn how to use it.
Once you learn how to use your software to its full potential, then your life will be greatly simplified and your effectiveness will be dramatically improved.
