I’ve been experimenting with Outlook Macros to file messages to my single Archive box after processing, inspired by this recent lifehacker post. You’ll need to use the digital certificate process detailed in the above lifehacker post to ‘sign’ your macros.
This may seem like a pretty simple cool-thing, but I've only just discovered it, so it's new to me.
Like many of you, I use Outlook to manage my email, and also use it extensively to manage GTD archives. This means that when I'm processing my email to file in a reference folder I have lots and lots of folders.
Up until today I've been frustrated by the small Move-To folder window in Outlook. I even bought a Logitech MX Revolution mouse to assist with the free-spinning wheel.
But today I simply tried typing the name of the folder while in the Move-To window; and as if by magic, the folder appeared. It seems to search across multiple PSTs, and both forwards & backwards.
Neat.
