When I start my upgrade from V0.1.1 to V2 will my existing email accounts, contacts & sent messages be maintained in the new version, I have saved the web directory and run an SQL backup of the existing database.

As long as you only alter the table stucture in the database, not delete anything then i dont see why you would loose any information. Sent messages are stored on your IMAP server. You said you have a backup any way so you can always restore the DB if you need to.

Thanks for that, I assumed the upgrade would retain most of the data, I will be taking to option to upgrade via the browser after replacing the files in the web directory as per the UPGRADING document.

Discovered that the index.php had not updated after the upgrade and the first error, so now that I have upgraded index.php I get a blank IE6 screen and on Firefox I get

Do you think I should rename my existing database and go for a new clean install instead?

are you using firefox? a quick search found this The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because it uses an invalid or unsupported form of compression.. could be worth a try. if you are using ff does the message also occur in other browsers?

As mentioned above, IE6 gave me a blank screen, FF gave me the error.
But, the problem has been cured by my hosting support man.
The server PHP required a change,

exactly what changes were made to cure my problem are unknwon. All I know is there was nothing wrong with my install and it now works in whichever browser I use.
