I am about to migrate from system 9.2 using Powermail 4.2.1, to a new computer (I Book, G4) with OS X. I have several questions.
Should I install the OS X version of 4.2 on the new computer first, then import the database from the OS 9 4.2 version, and _then_ upgrade to PM 5? When I go to the "Export Assistant" in my current OS9 PM 4.2, if I select "Your entire mail database", the only option it offers me is "Powermail Exchange". Can I assume that the result of this will be a database that can be imported into the OS X version of PM? If so, can it be read by both PM OS X versions 4.2 _and_ 5? What about the attachments? In OS X, will they still link to the messages they were previously attached to? Last May, I downloaded (from the CTMDEV.com website) a file called "PowerMail_5.0b26.dmg-link.dmg" which appears to be a free upgrade to PM 5. I never used it because I hadn't yet migrated to OS X. Is it the current version of PM 5, or is there a later one? Thanks for any advice you can give me . Riva Freifeld New York, NY USA
