I need to apply a lot of folder templates of a folder structure to a new folder structure (which has the same layout). Any help would be highly appreciated! regards, Johannes p.s.: i recently posted this in the german forum.

When you've got two identical accounts, you could try this:
Close TB
Copy the file account.flb from the account directory of the account with all templates to the other account
Open TB
In days past this even created folders missing in the target account, but it's quite some time ago that I tried this.

Just to be sure, copy the account.flb file from the second account to somewhere else or rename it to account.flb.old before overwriting it.

When you're using an encrypted message base, the file you need is called account.efb
