I don't know if that applies only to the parent account folder or each separate folder *outside* the Inbox but either way it's an improvement over a 2 GB limit for the whole database. I like it so much that I use T-Bird for most of my work email, leaving my Exchange server account strictly for calendar - Blackberry synchronization stuff and other related uses. Yes, it would be a shame. I've stuck with PowerMail on my Mac since the early days of version 3.x. As much as I like T-Bird on my PC, I've grown used to the PM interface and am loathe to switch unless presented with no alternative. BTW, I do agree that IMAP will continue to gain converts with its ability to maintain not only sent email but the very structure of one's email environment. The ability to look at one's email in precisely the same fashion regardless of where you are and which computer you are using is quite useful. The only problem is server space management. I don't say the above lightly as I have been and continue to be a big POP3 user. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGQzLVuprXnyzF8jkRAn1GAKClnLHioD9U/kNc7peTK4RKp4FidQCff/s6 vlH0jhLVDj5VeUK9eoPgs/s= =yjhj -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
