Roelof, the normal backups are going back to my OS drive ( so the thinking is that if the mail directory goes corrupt, I have backup - if the OS drive goes bust, my mail directory is not affected. If both go bust, at least I have the monthly backup on an external drive. As for the scheduled backup containing the templates etc, it's good to hear that. I have never done a reinstallation from these backups - only tried it once with voyager and that was a complete mess. -- Tom using TheBat! 4.2.12.4 on XP ________________________________________________ Current version is 4.2.12.4 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
