Hi, In order to be able to help you, we probably need some more information. What is your client software for email ? Are you using kmail ? If so, I'd say it simply needs to copy the .kde/share/apps/kmail folder from Lenny/KDE to the .trinity/share/apps/kmail of Squeeze/TDE (that was what I done and it was all right) and you'll get your mails in kmail- trinity. Maybe you will have to enter your account passwords again, but that will be all, to my sense. So some few questions - how exactly did you "move" your emails ? (from and to folder names?) - is everything ok about your mails on your Lenny version, can you see them all under kmail or whatever ? - is your user has the same name on both Lenny and Squeeze ? Just tell us ;) Regards Pierre Le dimanche 05 f�vrier 2012 � 21:33 +0000, Lisi a �crit : > A few months ago, when my desktop turned its toes up and went skywards to its > rest, I started to use my testbed machine as a temporary desktop.
