I changed the location of my saved emails to C:\MyEmails and, indeed, all my mail came to the new location. I see that it is a cut&paste operation, not a copy&paste. So, I suppose I can now delete the stupid {2DAA67C0-D0FE-11D4-A79C-00010228D28B} folder. Now, it is a tad-bit easier for me to back-up my databases, correspondence, and emails by copy&paste C:\MyFiles and C:\MyEmails to a zip disk. Thanks much Bob Hayes.
