TB on 2 computers
Hi I am temporarily needed to use TB on two computers. On one of the computers I am getting the mail during the day but not deleting messages from the server except for mail I am discarding. Then in the evening I am getting all the mail. After getting the evenings mail I want to copy everything over to the other computer I use during the day. I know I have to copy the mail program. Do I also have to copy over the registry if I haven't made any changes to folder or account properties, filters, etc. and have just gotten mail and kept some of that mail. Also, one of the computers is a notebook with a 15" UXGA (1620x1200) display while the other is a notebook with a 14.1 XGA screen. So, the resolutions are vastly different. As a result for the UXGA screen I use larger fonts than I want to use on the XGA screen. However when I copy over the registry info it sets the fonts on the XGA notebook some as on the UXGA but, of course, they display enormous. This is another reason I don't like copying over the registry info. -- Best regards, katsmeow http://www.netcom.com/~kvickers Using The Bat! 1.46 Beta/5 under Windows 98 4.10 Build 1998 -- -- View the TBUDL archive at http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBUDL, double click here and send the message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org

Hi Thomas, Thursday, September 21, 2000, 1:01:11 AM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote regarding TB on 2 computers: TF Youi will have to copy everything that has changed, of course. Is TF that TF your question? Not exactly. What I am saying is let's say that in the evening I receive mail and send mail on one computer but I do not add any folders, or filters, or change the display of columns, etc. All I do is receive mail, filter it to appropriate folders, and then send new mail. If I then just copy over the mail folder to my other computer but do not copy over the registry what happens? Will the second computer have it in the mail that is in the 1st computer and will it operate even though the registry has not been copied over? I don't want to copy the registry every night becuase (1) it is pain to do and (2) the second computer needs to use different font sizes and column width settings than the first computer and if I copy the registry over these things get changed. So, if it would work OK I would prefer to only copy over the mail folder and then only copy over the registry when I've made significant changes to the accounts or filters or templates. (My apologies to the list for posting my original message more than once. MDaemon said it had bounced so I resent it after rewriting it slightly. I then found out that the original message had posted.) -- Best regards, katsmeow http://www.netcom.com/~kvickers Using The Bat! 1.46 Beta/5 under Windows 98 4.10 Build 1998 -- -- View the TBUDL archive at http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBUDL, double click here and send the message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org

You don't have to copy over the registry settings at all. There was one user who did just this each day. He had two installations of TB! with identical accounts and folder structures. Each time he went home he would backup his mail folders and then restore them on his home computer and vice versa. The only account related data in the registry that I know of are the paths to the various mail folders on your hard disk. - -- A. Curtis Martin..
