Some great reassurance, I have checked and TB! has maintained the correct location for my data, so all seems good.

5.8.10 OK to use on Win 7 64 bit?
18 July 2014 Without thinking I moved TB! to my new Windows 7 Pro 64 bit machine from an elderly XP Pro 32 bit PC. Whilst TB! appears to work fine I would like reassurance it will be happy long term on a 64 bit OS.

You shouldn't have any issues (that I know of) Even v 6 runs on XP so I deduce that the basic architecture hasn't changed to the point where older versions have been left behind. The one thing it WILL do is try to put your data in the APPDATA folder for your account. That works if several people will access the Bat's installation via different accounts on the same computer. My wife and I were accessing the same mail base so I had to change it, but happily, that worked fine -- Rick Not only is the universe stranger than we imagine, it is stranger than we can imagine. - Sir Arthur Eddington Version 6.4.6.5 (32-bit) on Windows 6.2 Build 9200 Current version is 6.1.8 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

I should try the newer version one of these days though, but still afraid I might lose some things/settings. -- Best Wishes, Mark using The Bat! 5.8.10 Current version is 6.1.8 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

However, by chance I've found that TB! isn't picking up all my emails. They are all there on the server, I've even reset the missing ones as unread but it still won't see them. All my other clients like my iphone see them no bother. I'm using POP3 where my iphone is set up as IMAP. Any pointers would be gratefully received.
