Actually, there is nothing wrong with moving Emailer this way. Its perfectly acceptable, and results in the same degree of installedness as if you used the installer. The only thing to watch for is, did you ALSO move the Emailer related files from the System folder's Claris folder? There would have been a dictionary, help file, help viewer, and Emailer's prefence file. If you failed to move those as well, you can add them back at any time (well, the prefs file would have recreated itself when you ran Emailer). None of these files are needed for Emailer to work correctly (you just loose those added features, so no spell check, and no online help). -chris <http://www.mythtech.net> ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe send a mail message with a SUBJECT line of "unsubscribe" to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
