Hi Jan,

On 23 October 2000 at 08:14:34 GMT -0400 (which was 13:14 where I
live) Jan Rifkinson wrote and made these points on the subject
of "installing beta in separate directory":

Although you can do this, those that have done so in the past have
usually done so by accident and have nearly always lost everything
(mail, filters, settings). This is a result of running an old version
of TB having converted their data to work with a newer version.

Invariably, the old version spots a problem with the data and wipes it
out, rendering it useless for new and old alike.

So, my advice is "don't". I also advise backing up the mail folders
and account data (which is with them) before starting up the beta.
