Yes. Just make sure that both elog servers are not running when you move the password file. 

 This has not been implemented on purpose. Assume you have a thread with

A

    B

       C

So A links to B, B links back to A and so on. If you would move now B into another logbook, A and C would point to an entry which does not exist any more. Furthermore, C may contain some sentences which are a reply to something which has been said in B. So even if the "Move To" mechanism would re-link A to C and C to A, the entry C would maybe make no sense any more if B is missing. That's why you only can move threads as a whole. If you want to move individual messages, don't use replies. You can actually disable the reply command in the configuration file.

Hi Stefan,

Any possibility on this one?

I have implemented this feature in revision 2205. You need to set the new flag "Preserve IDs = 1" in the 
configuration. I have not tested this extensively, but I'm sure you will do it ;-)

Thanks Stefan,  Downloading shortly and I'll let you know ;-)
