As all my email/vcal/vcar accounts are server backed I don't need, in fact I don't want backups of my emails/calender/contacts/configuration but I do want export and import of all the _settings_ for these to setup a new computer quickly.

Is this something that was not considered when developing the export/import function? Or did I oversee something? I know I can only select accounts but than non of the caldev accounts are carried over.

Hi all

I have the good C:drive out of a failed computer which is now unusable, with my profiles on for that PC. They go back a while and are useful for referring to. There is some important information there. How do I move them to the current PC? N.B. I have been using the current PC for a couple of weeks and already have quite a few emails on it which I would like to keep.

Suggestions please Thank you Keith

Someone suggested BetterBird would be better for me than Thunderbird, but I'm not sure it was the right decision. They said I should be able to just open Thunderbird and it should work as they have the same base code, but it doesn't. Any ideas? I have 8 email accounts, so I'd hate to start from scratch.
