Hello,
On Wednesday, August 02, 2000 at 19:12:04 GMT -0700 (which was 7:12 PM
where I live <I would hope>) I typed:

I haven't worked the solution for this part out yet, so this is just
a warning. Note that if you use this method to create new accounts,
then you *must* rename the account folder in Windows Explorer. When
you rename accounts in TB, the corresponding changes are *not* made
in the folder structure. In case this isn't clear, suppose I have an
account in TB called JA with folders,
JA
|_ A
|
|_ B
|_B1
Then in Windows Explorer, my mail directory would contain folders,
Mail
|_ JA
|_ A
|
|_ B
|_B1
In TB I can rename my account to Januk. In Windows Explorer, I would
still see
Mail
|_ JA
|_ A
|
|_ B
|_B1
So restoring the dummy account from a batch file would destroy a new
account, if the new account was created by renaming a dummy account.
Is this almost as clear as mud now? <g>
