Is there any way to expand the list of "Move to folder"
entries beyond the 10 that seem to be programmed into
Outlook.

Move to folder is a great feature, and since I use it so
often, with about 15 - 20 common folders, the limitation
of only having 10 entries means that, at any point in
time, at least 5 of my common entries are not on the
list, and must be selected again, using a browse method.
After browsing, they are once again on the list, but some
other common folder has now been eliminated.
 
You can use rules to move items to folders that are commonly used for the
Move To action. You can also search the registry (sorry, not a registry
wizard) for the setting for the number of items shown in the Move To
dropdown. I do believe, however, that it is hard coded.

Thanks Milly,

I need to read all the entries, as they are received, so
automatically moving them to a folder is not a viable
option for me. I have already searched the registry
for "Move to" but have not found any entries.

So, thanks for the advice, but I will need to keep on
looking.
