Yes, this is correct. The old file will not be removed, if you had used a previous version. But any new or changed settings will only be written to the gconf configuration tables. We will be providing a tool (or more likely, an automatic initialisation step) to move the settings from the original bonobo-conf database to gconf, but not the other way around. BTW, once we have the configuration upgrade program setup, it will probably be made to automatically upgrade your old settings, which means it will read from the config.xmldb file, and may overwrite some settings if you've used 1.3 before. I might mail out some details of how to purge some of the old keys too, as there will be a bunch of rubbish lying around if you've run 1.3. Filters, vFolders, saved searches, shortcuts and local mailboxes will remain backward and forward compatible between 1.2 and 1.4, although not always compatible with 1.0 (if you use imap or exchange folders for example).
