Question on Windows Live Mail

[kenshireen]

I just switched over to Live Mail... I have a Pop3 account with bellsouth. What is the purpose of the storage folders.... All my mail goes to the normal folders so why would I want to use "storage".. I do keep a copy on the webserver...

Thank you
Ken

Well I am guessing it is for keeping an online copy of mail from any account together. This would be useful for someone working from home with three email address, (one for work, another for personal and maybe managing a child's). They could have all the mail seperate, but keep copies in an online storage bin, should their computer crash. or something like that. could be another reason entirely, but that makes sense to me.
