Default Macro saving msg file

On my job I have very small HD space for my mailbox (appr. 175 mb). It
is policy to archive all the mail in separate maps in explorer. And it
is impossible for me to install programs on the computer.

Therefore I have created shortcuts to projectmaps in explorer, and
placed them in the Quicklaunch bar from Windows. I can than place a
new mail with the mouse òn the shortcut, and it will be placed in the
right map as a .msg file.

It's the finding back that works badly. The filename in Explorer is
the same as the subject text from the email. And the date noted in
Explorer is ofcourse the date when it was copied. So: it is impossible
to find mails back in a simple way.

Does anyone know if it is possible to place a macro in the commandline
of the shortcut, so that every time a mail is placed on the shortcut,
the filename is changed to:
date the mail was send-name of the sender-subject ?

Or is there a better way?

Thanks,
Martin
