I use Outlook all day long at work and get many, many emails. Whether these
emails have attached files or not, I end up sorting and filing these emails
into personal email folders (.pst files on my hard drive) within Outlook. I
also save the attachments into folders in my My Documents folder, meaning
that I more or less have to maintain duplicate filing systems: one in
Outlook, and one in My Documents.
My suggestion is to integrate Outlook and My Documents. So, instead of
having Outlook as a separate application with it's own filing system, I would
just have folders in my My Documents folder with the usual headings (Inbox,
Sent, etc.) plus my various project folders where I would sort and file
messages that show up in my Inbox folder. In other words, there would only
be one filing system for both my email and non-email files.
