great

so  does this mean, that if we decided to revert to SL on the 
macbook, because it syncs via mobile me, that email will all be okay 
- we just loose cant read Lion version of  mail file.

Not that we are likely to  downgrade ( my wife though dislkes Lions 
changes to Contacts, disappearing scroll bars, full screen....) as we 
are going to have to move to iCloud anyway which I understand 
requires Lion and iOS5.
