How should I handle them? I got it! E stands for Encrypted, right? My error was that I didn't rename them as Messages.EBB/EBN. It works. Messages with no body still have some header fields visible in the header list, good. Maybe Message/View source (F9) should work for no body messages too? It doesn't, at the moment. Is there a reason why Message/Copy to folder... doesn't work even when body is available? What I really miss since ever is drag and drop of whole folders between different accounts. Migrating a folder tree to a different account with TB has always been a pain in the ass. Thank you. -- Windows 11 Home The Bat!

I tried something like that, but database files in my IMAP account have extensions .EBB and .EBN. How should I handle them? Tnx. -- Windows 11 Home The Bat!

Yeah, if connection with the server cannot be established, you need to operate manually - it is possible copy .TBB and .TBN files of an IMAP folder as Message.TBB and Messages.TBN of a local folder - they have the same format. The only problem that could occur is absence of downloaded message body or attachments... -- Best regards, Stefan Tanurkov Current version is 9.1.18 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Moving messages from a local database of an expired IMAP account to folders in a different account
I have an expired IMAP account with lots of messages in the local database. It seems that I cannot move or copy any message to a folder in a different account. The command "Message/Copy to folder..." doesn't work. I can export/import messages via unix mailboxes actually, but is there a quicker way? I would like to use the database files directly with a different account, but I don't know if that's possible. Tnx. -- Windows 11 Home The Bat!
