Email Sorting to Personal Folders

[B]

I have a user here (our Executive Director) who receives
literally thousands of emails, currently 11,000 in her
inbox that she doesn't have time to organize. I know this
sounds crazy. I have set up personal folders for her, but
that doesn't work well either as she travels alot and her
connections are usually too slow to even access the
personal folders. Currently she organizes by particular
subjects, not subject lines and/or by names. Is there a
better way, i.e. by month recieved or something along
those lines that would keep her in box more manageable?
Also, archiving doesn't work well unless there's a better
way, because when restoring the archives, she ends up with
a ton of duplicates and it's more confusing for her. I
just need a simple way, if there is one. Thanks.

Might I suggest that this is info overload.
I doubt there is any hope of her achieving anything meaningfull with this
amount of info, assuming there is other buis. to attend to. Anything
important will probably be missed!
Perhaps it might be more prudent for a PA, or collection of, to filter out
the probable 90% of irrelevant junk,
and/or forward it to the appropriate person.
BTW what size is the *.pst file?; larger than 1.6GB = disaster looming.
