Hi Jeremy,
I went the simplistic way of just copying the whole of my Profile folder
onto a FAT32 formatted partition and pointing both Linux and Windows
installations at the same place. It works OK. Some issues with it
forgetting filters but I'll work those out as I need them. Th only
other thing I notice is that now when I use the Linux based installation
there is a noticeable pause while it reads the FAT32 drive before
displaying the contents of folders.
Alex, a good idea about the IMAP server, unfortunately I don't have
another machine, only this one and my laptop. I suppose I *could* run
an IMAP server on this one. Would that work?
Kind regards,
Julian
