Thank you for indulging this question. I would agree that this is a great place to tools to help us organize data, ideas and information. And it is a great archive for me as well since I can search back to many a thread.

I agree that alias mailboxes would be a great option, but I am far down in the pecking order, so I can suggest and encourage, but would probably need to carry around a box of chocolates instead of a stick!
