Hi. I hope somebody here can help me out.

I run microsoft outlook 2002 in the office. I get about 300 mail a day.
When I'm out of the office for a week or more, the mail builds up to 2000 or more.
The problem is that when there is that much mail on the pop3 server, outlook 2002 gives an error during download saying that it is out of memory.

The computer I have is a pentium 4 1.8A with 512MB memory.

I would ideally like to continue using outlook, since I have a need to automatically save attachments with a certain email subject header to a specific directory, and a program called "casaveatt" does exactly this for me. This program only runs in outlook.

This is not an isolated problem to just my computer. All the other computers in the office have the same problem when dealing with large number of mail in outlook.

I feel that if there is a way to download a fixed number of mail (say 300) at a time, this problem can be solved, but I don't know how to go about this.

Or alternatively, does anyone know of an email client that allows me to set rules so that email attachments are automatically saved to a folder when it has a specific subject header?



I appreciate any help.
Thanks
