The trick (for me at least) has been to start off conservatively and then as things look as though they are working well, begin to move more of the normal activity over to the beta until it is the main instance (assuming it works well enough for that <wink>). So on an initial install I will leave copies on the server so that if things crash badly I can still recover my email. When things have worked well for a while I will start adding plugins, filters, macros (actually I don't have many of those) and such and finally ... iff all of the above work well, I will stop using the old install and start clearing the server from the beta. It is more work, I have not lost any data doing things this way. -- Best regards, MikeD mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Using The Bat! v3.0.2.1 on Windows ME 4.90 Build 3000 ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 3.0.2.2 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/
