Is there a way to share my Local folders for Mozilla Mail. My Suse 9.0 is Mozilla 1.4 and Win2k Pro is Mozilla 1.5. I've set it so that the Local Folders are on a FAT32 Partition but as far as I can see, there is no way to import the settings/local folders between the two different Mails. Am I missing something?

You should can do it by going into Mozilla: Edit Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings... Then choose Local Folders and set the local directory (bottom of dialogue box) to a directory on the FAT partition that you can both read and write to in both Win2k and linux. I've done this for home/work where the local folders live on a linux box at work that I access from win2K (work) with Mozilla 1.5 through samba and from linux (home) with Mozilla 1.4 through an rsync'ed directory. It's all completely seamless. -- JDL Non enim propter gloriam, diuicias aut honores pugnamus set propter libertatem solummodo quam Nemo bonus nisi simul cum vita amittit.
