[QUOTE="JackTheRipper, post: 109040, member: 7836"] Hey guy, I want to do a clean install of Tiger. It's not being unstable or anything, it's just that mysql has been a pain in the @$$ and for some reason the mysql.sock has been not working. I cant run in through terminal, have rechecked permissions and if my buddy cant fix it tomorrow...I'll have to do a clean install just to start with a fresh slate. In an event I have to do that, I have the following question: How do I back up my email a/c and settings? [I have 8 inboxes...do I just backup /Library/Mail/Pop*, i.e all folders starting with POP??]? thanks also, any other special backup i need to do? apart from the regular...i.e my docs, bookmarks, files.
