Hello A. & others on TBUDL following this thread,
Tuesday, January 09, 2001, you asked:
ACM> How do you normally move an entire accounts mail folder from one
ACM> location to another?
You don't. When you change the location in the account's properties,
TB! does this for you (and TELLS you that there are already files in
the location, asking whether to proceed or not). That was the
problem. I wound up with extra files on a disk w/ limited space.
This also confused TB! (and Douglas, as to which is which. Some are
newer yet smaller than others). At least I have more disk space
after compressing (eliminating messages deleted only from sight, not
the folder).
Are we reversing roles here? (Just don't as for a cholecstectomy, as
it would be my first try at one).
ACM> A solid way of doing this without problems involves the registry.
ACM> a) Close TB!, move the accounts folder to the desired location.
ACM> b) Fire up the registry editor, and go to:
ACM> HKCU/Software/rit/The Bat!/Users Depot
ACM> You'll see all your account names and their paths entered as values.
ACM> Correct the relevant value to reflect the new location of the account
ACM> folder.
ACM> c) Restart TB!.
ACM> This works without fail for me.
That's the same old Allie, back deep into the entrails of TB! The
problem however is the above - there are now copies with differing
data. some messages came in later, when fewer messages were known to
TB!. So some messages may be lost either way. (Most were from 2
lists w/ archives, however. Others were more important but my
answers include the heart, guts and bones of the original. (I can't
resist doing that).
Douglas
