Thanks Alain a couple more questions: How frequently do you run Rsync? What do you mean by resync by hand? Do you mean simply copy the files back? Finally, what if any is the recommended way to migrate the client from POP3 to IMAP? Simply select all the items in (Outlook?) and copy them to the new new folder containing IMAP? _______________________________________________ tsl-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.trustix.org/mailman/listinfo/tsl-discuss
