Hi, I moved one of the profiles to my NAS server that all of the users have access to, on each PC I changed the path to the profile and poited it on said NAS. All clients loaded whole profile correctly, when I received any email it appeared on all devices at the same time, however upon closing and reopening TB the client redownloaded latest message again, displaying notification afterwards. This happens on every reopen with or without other users having TB open. Deleted emails are still visible on launch and disappear as soon as "new" emails are downloaded. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a way to correctly centralize the TB profile for multiple users? Thank you in advance

Hi 2manyads4me :-)

I don't think having a profile on a NAS that is shared with multiple users is supported.

Not sure what the best way to accomplish your goal is. I'll see if others have some ideas about this. Perhaps if you use IMAP and login with multiple machines into the same email account?

Cheers! ...Roland
