well, as I just found out, you can't do that on XP ( NTFS), without
affecting all users. I tried to change the mail folder ( for me only)
and when I clicked OK, it paused ( disk madly churning) and moved my
entire mail folder structure, including my wifes account, to the new
folder, and erased the old folder. I would consider this a bug. Since
there are multiple users, they should each be able to map the folders
where their mail resides.
