I had downloaded the program last summer, but didn't get around to using
it until two days ago. I have now moved the two accounts for which I had
been using Juno 5 back into Juno 5, where they originated.
See below for the datials.

In the .zip package I found only juno5bdb.bat, not the other four special
bat files referred to in the README file. I therefore used the the DOS
instructions to extract a sent of micely lableed frm files in a temporary
directory. However, there were no instructions on what to do with them
to get them into Juno 4.
What I did was to open the corresponding account in my Juno 4 package and
then close it again without downloading anything. Then I identified the
USER000n sub-directory (folder), and under a text editor (EdiPad Lite) I
opened and edited the new director.frm file to insert foldnnnn entries
for all the named mailboxes. I then copied the frm files from the
temporary sub-directory into the the USER000n directory, renaming them
with the folder numbers as I went. I intended to copy the addrbook.nv
files from the Juno5 package to the Juno4 one, but sadly for one of the
tweo i got it wrong. Sadly I haad deleted the account in Juno 5 before I
discoverd this, so lost the infornmation (I do have an old backup). [I
used thhe DOS based program File Commander for this - it's like Norton
Commander but handles long file names).
The reason I prefer Juno 4 is that I can manipulate folders under DOS.
If I accumulate too many messages in my In mailbox and haven't
immediately time to read them I use Juno 4 to move the last one into a
temporary mail box. Then under DOS I can iknterchange that temporary
mailbox with the In box, and thereby get a fresh start all in one woo. I
do this here in Juno 1.49 adn in other accounts under Juno 4.11.
