Not so. Mine shows:

HKey_Current_User/Software/BluePrintSoftwareWorks/PMMail/

ShellDirectory:REG_SZ: z:\email\data

set this key to your data directory, just like mine is. Make
sure that PMMail is your default mailer, set under:

Control Panel --> Internet Properties --> Programs --> E-mail
--> PMMail 2000

If you don't have PMMail available under this drop-down box,
re-run the install and accept the defaults at the end to
associate *.msg files with PMMail etc., though you don't need
the shortcut hotkey if you don't want it (can add manually later
if you want).

This does work Sorin, on NT4 and 2000, but don't try it now, get
out and enjoy the sun while it lasts otherwise I might have to
think that you are a 08 instead of from Uppsala <bg>.

Cheers,

Simon.

PS. Any chance of trimming your sig. a bit for the list? Between
your sig. and Hazen's vast quotes, the digest becomes something 
of a chore trying to pick the messages out from between the
stuff that we've all seen before!
