What is Hana Outlook Folder Search (HOFS)?

HOFS is a Dot Net 2.0 Application that will access Microsoft Outlook application interface to help you orgnize emails. Especially, if you receive many emails and maintain extensive list of email folders, this software will help you find the folder name quickly and reduce the time to manage your emails.

I am receiving more than 100 emails everyday and try to maintain clean Inbox by organizing the emails and moving them to the corresponding catagorized email folder. For each email that I receive , I have to browse through the existing Outlook folder tree to look up the exact folder that the mail is belong to. However, with more than 500 email folders, this task becomes the major headache. So I really wished that there would be a software out there that would help me. But I couln't find any.

So I started to research and spent some time to develop a simple utility that can list up the folders when I type in few letters. And I think the result is quite nice and better than I expected. So I decided to share it with you all.
