That's sort of how I do it.  And I do see a reduction in the size of each 
account.  But what I'm saying is that when freshly installed, each of the 
four accounts was at 83 KB (or something close to that.)  And now, five 
months after the install, and with constant deletes of mail and trash, I've 
got one account just over 1 MB and the smallest is now at 112 KB.  My real 
question is if I delete all four accounts and just import the settings that 
I've exported, will all four accounts appear with the settings previously 
exported?  If the import creates the accounts, I can kill all account every 
few months and restore them and their settings, and keep the database at a 
reasonable size.
