As I understand it, SM stores your e-mails in one big file, e.g. inbox, controlled by SM, whereas, as I understand it MS Outlook stores its e-mails as individual files on the HD so under the control of the OS, e.g. Win 7 or Win 10. So, if Windows allows multiple, similarly named files, MS Outlook would also!! Or am I wrong?? I use the Enterprise version of Outlook and it stores all emails in one large *.ost file. Mine is currently ~3.5 GB. Afaik, no Win o/s has stored files of the same name in the same folder. Maybe because it was based on the dos 8.3 system. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Windows 10 will use the same file name and append " - Copy" to it. I know that. It was just to compare windows file management ans SeaMonkey mail managemnt. Seamonkey cannot append " - Copy" to a mail, so it's normal that it refuse to duplicate a mail in the same folder. And, finally the question for the OP is still without an answer from him: Why did he need a duplicated mail in the same folder ? When he need to do a "reply", a "forward", or an "edit message as new" one mail is enough, you don't need another identical mail ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Ant, if you had an e-mail called "ABCDE" and copied it to the same folder, shouldn't the copy just over-write the original?? I've got no idea of how you are achieve having two "same named"/"same content" e-mails in the same folder, even if it has been in a different folder!! Does something in the e-mail Header change so they are not seen as proper copies?? -- Daniel User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:52.0) Gecko/20100101 SeaMonkey/2.49.1 Build identifier: 20171016030418 User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:52.0) Gecko/20100101 SeaMonkey/2.49.1 Build identifier: 20171015235623 ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
