Just copy the mail directory from one computer to the other using whatever works for you (external drive, USB stick, cloud drive) and then copy it down to the new computer wherever you like. Install TB! on the new machine and once you've started it up, go to Preferences and then System and set the Mail directory to wherever you copied the mail directory to. It takes time to copy everything, of course, but it's unlikely anything will go wrong. -- -Sam ________________________________________________ Current version is 7.1 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
