In fact, I think the message base itself should not be deleted without specific confirmation anyway. So that you can still import it into another mail client if you wish. I was thinking of registry entries and files spread all over the system.

So, TB uninstalls clean if I don't use Windows users accounts, except for the message base? If so, all is fine. -- Cheers, Thomas.
