Re[2]: Accessing mail from two computers
Geoff- Same here, except I use the M: drive (for Mail ). Depending on how your network is set up you may not need to bother about implementing roaming profiles. -Mark Wieder Using The Bat! v1.63 Beta/7 on Windows 2000 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 2 -- Current version is 1.62 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

All my users have drive P: mapped to personal network filespace and all installations of TB have P:\Mail as their default message base. All users can access their mail from any computer that has TB installed. However, you do need a fast network and roaming profiles. While this strategy works wonderfully over 100-base-TX, it was painfully slow (i.e. unworkable) over 10-base-T.

That's what I set up for my father: the mail folders are on my gateway/server (runing linux with samba - not really relevant), and I mapped a network drive on both computers where my father wants to use the mail. Then I set up The Bat on one computer to have it's base folders on the network drive, and exported it's settings from the registry (Start->Run->regedit.exe; HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Rit branch), and imported these settings on the second computer, and I simply copied The Bat's install folder there. Also, with the XP (not sure if it's available on 2000) feature 'Make available offline', he can use The Bat on laptop even when not connected to the home network. -- Jernej Simoncic, [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www2.arnes.si/~sopjsimo/ ICQ: 26266467 [The Bat! v1.63 Beta/7 on Windows 2000 5.0.2195.Service Pack 3] Usefulness is inversely proportional to reputation for being useful. -- Greenberg's First Law of Influence Current version is 1.62 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Accessing mail from two computers
Hi TBUDL Is it possible to put your E-mail folders on a separate network share and access them from two separate computers. So for example when I'm working on my notebook, i can have access to the e-mail i have here on my desktop, and i can use it as if i was using this copy here. I looked at synchronizing but that seemed a bit too fiddly.
