I use a desktop and a laptop and would like to have both setup the same way. One idea might be to do a sym-link for the MM files / directories which goes to a drop-box folder.</p>

<p dir="auto" style="margin:1em 0">This does <strong>not</strong> work. If MailMate is running on the destination machine then the changes would simply be ignored, but it wouldn't even work to symlink. I think MailMate would simply overwrite the changes (and destroy the symlink), but it might be worse than that since I haven't tried.</p>

<p dir="auto" style="margin:1em 0">Yes, that would be best, but it's not a simple change (at least not for some of the configuration files). Interestingly, an IMAP server could be used for the sharing avoiding the need for a third party sharing service (at the cost of some private/secret MailMate-related IMAP mailbox to store these files).</p>
