I've done this many times. It's possible that I originally created my first TBird install in Linux, and copied that profile over to my Windows box, thus preserving the Linux case usage. That would explain the fact that copying back from Windows to Linux works for me - it's the only thing that comes to mind to explain our different experiences - as I've said a couple of times in this thread, I've done this many times and it has always worked for me.It is possible things were done differently. My specific situation was that if folders were created in Tbird under linux in the shared mail folder then they were accessible in Tbird under both environments, but if the folders were created in Tbird under windows in the shared mail folder, Tbird under linux listed the folders in its folder list, but when you clicked on them to display the contents Tbird complained it couldn't find themSounds like you've confirmed my theory...Windows doesn't care about case much of the time, but Linux usually doesto make it clear - windows is and was always COMPLETLY case-insensitive while unix (except MacOSX seen on many setups) was and is not regards, Steve |
