If the MBOX files themselves remain clean, you may be able to share them, but if Netscape needs something extra or if it complains if the .msf files don't remain synchronized you may have a problem. I'd suggest trying it first on mailbox files you can afford to throw away and rebuild as necessary. Mahogany is very forgiving of other applications reading and writing MBX and MBOX files that it is using for mailbox folders as long as Mahogany doesn't have them open at the time. I wouldn't want to try running both Netscape and Mahogany at the same time; I can control exactly when Mahogany opens and closes a given folder, but I have not idea about Netscape. My suspicion is that Netscape opens all folders at startup and closes them at shutdown. -- Mac :}) ** I normally forward private questions to the appropriate mail list. ** Ask Smarter: http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html Give a hobbit a fish and he eats fish for a day.
