I've never tried each option separately; I'd imagine rather a lot more
than the [POP3] mail servers would be skipped if you didn't check it.
So, whatever way you go, you'll be recreating some data.

(There also appear to be some bugs with Backup/Restore - some trivial
settings, such as the folder fonts and the taskbar/system tray
appearance, appear not to be carried across. I've filed a bug report
and will see what response there is).

moving address book to wok

Bat List,

   I'm in the process of doing some major house cleaning on the
   Pegasus address book that I've imported into TB (which imported
   nicely I might add). The question I have is what address book files do I need to
   bring over to my work computer where I will also be using TB. I saw
   several files in The Bat! directory that look related to the
   address book, but I want to make certain of the correct ones. Also
   is there a templates file that I could also copy over to my work

   Thanks lots.
