GL I'm using a very old version of TB but the latest version of MBA and I
GL have to navigate to and open the TBB file for each folder. The All
GL Mailboxes option in the Open Mailbox dialog of MBA is just to let you
GL choose which mailbox type (e.g. Outlook, TB, Mozilla) to open and for
GL The Bat! each TBB or MSB file is a mailbox.

Thanks for the prompt response, Geoff.

It must be this hot weather but I'm bugg**ed if I (or MBA) can find a
TBB or MSB file.

Each account's folder has a series of folders named e.g. FBA0C14C.DBF
which contain files called MESSAGES.EBB and .EBI.  These are followed
by files named ACCOUNT.something e.g. .EFB. All the accounts' folders
contain something similar.

This morning I also installed MBA in my office where I use Thunderbird
and  I  had  no problems at all! I made the same choices in the wizard
(obviously the paths were different) so I'm mystified.

RO That's because you're using OTFE and the idea behind encryption is
RO that the messages can't be read by other people and applications.

I see your point, Roelof.

Apologies for wasting people's time.

 Hello Roelof,

[snip]

 I see your point, Roelof.

 Apologies for wasting people's time.

Let me promise you, William, this dialog was not a waste of time for me.   
I have had one Fookes product (NoteTab Standard) for years, and have  
thought about Mailbag Assistant (for Christmas?), since I have had so many  
mail programs over the years.  And I don't use OTFE (whatever that is...),  
but apparently it masks the mail.  But now I think I will ask for  
Mailbag Assistant for Christmas (my wife monitors my software budget  
with my collaboration...).  So I appreciate your questions and Roelof's  
answers.  I have learned from both of you.

Please note my signature - I've loved The Bat! and used it for three years  
(besides earlier trials), but have switched to Gmail's IMAP (so I can  
access the same mail from Win XP and Ubuntu Linux), and I found Opera's M2  
the most user-friendly and effective IMAP mail application.  Once The Bat!  
ever gets to that point, I'll happily go back to it!

And thanks again to Roelof and you for your good dialog.
