Wow! Still trying to use floppies for this sort of thing? :) It will
really be frustrating then. A rewriteable CD would be better.. or a
zip disk. I guess you don't have either, so you have to struggle
with that inconvenience. :/
Is there no way you can network the systems when they're together.
That's really the way to go. I started doing that way too late.

No. Those are only the message base and message base index file.
There's one of those files in every folder for the account. The
account also contains specific configuration data files etc.
PC> so to synchro it has to copy the whole account.
That would be best if you wish to use the templates etc. associated
with the account.

Other than expanding your capabilities to transfer data more
efficiently from one machine to the next than with floppies? No. :/
Networking your machines can be a tremendous investment.
