Ref: http://www.computing.net/windows95/wwwboard/forum/163085.htmlThis is useful info for Incredimail users. Just like Myemerald, I too am having problem with my laptop and anticipate with anguish that it will die sooner or later. Just so that I'm not caught off guard when it does go I would want to create regular backups until I can afford a new laptop. I've looked at the FAQ on the procedures for backing up all of my messages, but I'm still a bit perplexed on a few issues. Perhaps someone could help me ? - It says "Note: IncrediMail content, such as Letters, Animations, Notifiers and Skins, are not saved." What is implied by "letters" ? Things like MS-Word documents as an attached file ? Or merely any special fonts used in a message ? I've got tons of attached files that I want to make sure I don't loose. - I use the word "backup", but everyone uses the word "transfer". Does it mean that if I do a transfer I am actually removing all of my files from Incredimail and storing them to a *.cab folder, and the only way I can keep on reading my messages on my computer is to restore it to its original state ? Thanks everyone. And have a nice day. D0n

Letters are template page designs in Incredimail.... When you back up with Incredimail it also saves any attachments with-in the emails saved. HTH Alan56 Any fool can make a rule and any fool will follow it www.wankerdrivers.com
