For the moment I'm using Netscape on both sides of my box and desiring to store the mail in just one location. The chosen location is on drive C in the folder Netscape\DCJOHAN\Mail on the windows side, or more simply C:\Netscape\DCJOHAN\Mail. When viewed on the Linux side in the netscape preferences dialog, the browse option displays it as /windows/C/Netscape/dcjohan/Mail. Every time I try to get my mail (save for once this evening when it all downloaded just fine) I get a Netscape: Error "Default Inbox folder does not exist. You cannot download any new messages." I can't see what's wrong here, especially since it actually worked ONCE this evening. Can anyone determine what is going wrong with this setup, and yes, the C drive is mounted. thanks, dave
