Re: moving email accounts, etc.

OK, exported the news settings and just re-subbed to the groups.

I'll leave the old msgs behind.

Say, do you know where the newsgroup for MSIE 7 is?

Thx.

If you already moved everything else, then you have a new identity and
can't clone the old. *Unless*, you clone the old identity and put it in a
new identity on the new machine and not the one you already created. If
you are successful, then you can delete the first identity.

Do you have a lot of news servers and news groups? You can export all of
the news account settings and copy them to a CD or flash drive. Put them
on the new machine and import them. You will have to subscribe to the
individual groups, but the account settings will be there ready for you.

So I gotta ask.

I already moved the emails, account settings, etc using the other method.

Will this method move ONLY the newsgroups, or will it take all the emails
as
well, leaving me with two sets of emails?

Thx.

The Clone Identity should do just that:

But, how to I transfer all the newsgroups?

Thanks.

I'm setting up a new computer. Both the old (win 2k) and the new
(win
xp)
are running OE 6.x

I have moved the folders and the address book, but don't know how
to
move
all the settings and accounts. And I have a lot of accounts!

Thanks!
