I'm running SM 2.0.1 on Win XP SP2. In the accounts panel on the left
side of the SM main screen, I have 2 accounts with many folders: 1)an
old account with an ISP I'm going to close (it's dial-up). and 2) a new
account (DSL) with some similar and some different folders from the old
account.
As mail senders began using my new address, I set up new folders. I
don't have all the same folders and I don't have all the folders that
are in my old account and I have new ones that aren't in the old account.
I want to merge/transfer? all my old mail messages to my new account,
delete my old account and ensure that the address book is retained.
Is there an quick way to do this? I discovered that I could drag mail
messages from the old account to the new - but this would be tedious
even if I could transfer whole folders (I'm haven't tried this yet).
Any suggestions?
Thanks,

Th eaddress book is in your profile, not associated with any mail
subscription you have. So as long as your profile as a whole stays
as-is, so does the address book.
As for which account messages appear under, why not simply drag & drop
from the old folders to the new? Once you have everything where you
want it, THEN you can delete the old mail account. Once deleted in the
SM GUI, the files for that account can be removed from the 'Mail' folder
under your profile directory.
