By its nature an imap folder is remote (stored on the server) whereas a common is local. (stored on your own computer) The solution would be to create a new common folder and copy your remote messages to that new folder. > It seems I cannot even copy a single message from an IMAP folder to a > different one, if I'm not connected to the IMAP server. But it looks like you've tried that already. IMAP is stored remote, if you cannot access the server, you cannot access the messages. There might be a workaround: the IMAP cache. Create a new common folder. Don't store any messages there. Switch to the imap folder you want to 'restore' >From the menu: Folder -> Properties Here you'll find the full path to the IMAP cache of that folder something like "some path"\accountname\IMAP\SDF456.TBB Write that down. Shut down TB Copy the TBB file to the directory matching with your recently created common folder and rename it to MESSAGES.TBB. As it was an empty foldeer there shouldn't be any MESSAGES.* in that directory, otherwise delete them beforehand. Start TB and switch to the common folder. If you're lucky you've got the messages. Might depend on what you've got stored in the imap cache. I didn't try this myself. In the future when you stop using an imap server, copy the messages before the actual stopping to your local message base. -- Groetjes, Roelof http://www.voormijalleen.nl/ ________________________________________________ Current version is 6.6 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
