I thought I'd be smart an try using Thunderbird for my email.  I imported files from OutlookExpress, and because I synchronize my files from my desktop to my notebook every day, I need to relocate the message store files to a folder in the My Documents Folder, instead of the default folder in the Application Data folder.  Does anyone know how to do that?  I tried looking it up in the Help system, but had no luck finding what I was looking for.  I know just enough to be dangerous, and tried one thing, but it didn't work.  I'd appreciate any ideas.

You might try:
Tools --> Account Settings --> Server settings

At the bottom there's a "Browse" button where you can change the local directory. I don't know if it copies the necessary files or if you have to do it manually... That'd be the first thing I'd try, anyway.

Thanks, I think I got it right now.  That's the place.  You do, however, have to do it manually.   Took some finageling, but I think I'm OK now.  We'll see when I come to work tomorrow, and all my emails are gone.
