Yes, this will work provided that the TB! installations share the
same paths for the installation and working (Mail) directories.

Be sure that your mailbox (POP account) has a good enough capacity
to store all that traffic.

Not that I can think of.

FPN> Is there any other way to get the same results easier?

Not really. The synchronising tool could help you to use one
installation to update the other. However, since you can copy one
installation on top of the other, it doesn't really matter which way
you do it.

You shouldn't.

Once you transfer the registry information from one machine to the
next, you shouldn't have problems.
