i have solved with some bat file, with this:

When i init Windows7
rename "Account_Name\*.oeaccount" *.vista
rename "Account_Name\*.w7" *.oeaccount

When i init Vista
rename "Account_Name\*.oeaccount" *.w7
rename "Account_Name\*.vista" *.oeaccount

explaining is very simple:

I have create in MessageStorePath/Account1 two versions works for two systems of the file .oeaccount:
account{51F32DFC-EA9A-4A55-A94A-7A8B5C1F2A0F}.oeaccount
account{51F32DFC-EA9A-4A55-A94A-7A8B5C1F2A0F}.w7
account{51F32DFC-EA9A-4A55-A94A-7A8B5C1F2A0F}.Vista

I have the bats files in MessageStorePath

When i init vista run this bat:
del "Account1\*.oeaccount"
copy "Account1\*.vista" "Account1\*.oeaccount"

del "Account2\*.oeaccount"
copy "Account2\*.vista" "Account2\*.oeaccount"

....................
.................................

When i init Windows 7 run this bat:
del "Account1\*.oeaccount"
copy "Account1\*.w7" "Account1\*.oeaccount"

del "Account2\*.oeaccount"
copy "Account2\*.w7" "Account2\*.oeaccount"

.............................................
.................................................. ....

Hi, Javier.

Thank you for that script! This thread is now stored in my "Saved News"
storage folder. ;<)

One small possible improvement:
> del "Account2\*.oeaccount"
> copy "Account2\*.w7" "Account2\*.oeaccount"


Is it really necessary to delete .oeaccount before copying the new version
to recreate it?

not is need, but for security i think is better,
if for error you run WinLivemail without run .bat file lost file settings.
