The company I work for archives all emails each month. This has significantly negatively affected me ever since they started doing this. The way that we have to search for, review and retrieve archived emails is terrible.
I will refrain from going into full complaint mode, and get to my question. Is there a way for me to defeat this monthly archive process? I thought about creating a rule to make copies of all emails from specific people that would go into a "Copy" folder. Then, and this is the part I have no idea how to accomplish, have a rule or a macro or some magical wizardry, forward all emails back to me. Obviously, this is an imperfect and incomplete idea, but it's where I'm at at the moment.
I know this might seem like not such a big problem, but for me, it is huge. There didn't used to be any email archiving, and life was good. As imperfect as my memory is in most aspects of my life, I have a strange ability to remember emails from years ago, and my inbox along with my own internal (brain) archival process was the perfect organizational system.
So, can anybody help me?
