You should be able to copy your /root/.mozilla and /root/nsmail (not sure about this one to be honest, I don't use mozilla mail) to your /home/whateveryourusernameis/ directory, then chown -R yourusername.users .mozilla nsmail And that's it. Again, I'm not sure about the ~/nsmail directory, that's where it used to be (or was it ~/ns_imap or something?). -- Alan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - http://arcterex.net --------------------------------------------------------------------- "The only thing that experience teaches us is that experience teaches us nothing. -- Andre Maurois (Emile Herzog) -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
