Hello tbudl, Don't get me wrong I'm a great fan of TB! but if I had one wish it would be to make TB! recognise it's won mail databases more easily. I've had to re-install winxp several times recently which has brought home just how much of a pain the current system is.
1) Point TB! at the mail folder in 'My docs' (because I keep my docs on a seperate drive when I reinstall it's unaffected). 2) Create a stupid test account just so I can get into TB! then delete it (this step may not be necessary but I've always doneit his way). 3) Try and remember the names I'd given for each account I have was it yahoo, yahoo.com, yahoo.co.uk that sort of thing. 4) Try and remember the order in which I like those accounts to display - subconciously I'm used to them being in a given order and reach for them there now. 5) Change the view so that the account tree is tall and reaches top to bottom on the left - just my pref. 6) Go through all accounts checking user names for several accounts I have user names like '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' that bat when it recovers the configs for the folders etc always drops the @domain.com bit which means I have to double check all accounts. 7) all done ... but there really should be something easier. For those of you familiar with Zoot (www.zootsoftware.com) it's a dream by comparison just point it at your database files and ever configuration you made is instantly available again. Surely we could improve TB! in this respect? -- Best regards, ::Andrew:: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] London UK Join the Power Tools Discussion: -------------------------------- Recommended software: http://www.tr1be.com/powertools/index.html Subscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Using The Bat! 1.53d on Windows NT 5.1 Build 2600 -- ________________________________________________________ Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com
