I posted before but got no reply over a long period of time - months. The issue is that every time I try to do an export of my data all that gets created is a small file - a couple of K - whereas in theory my e-mail store is several gig. When I try the export I get the attached message.
I can see that I have some large .cfs files on my computer in a folder called: C:\Users\dell-user\AppData\Local\Zimbra\Zimbra Desktop\index\0\2\index\0 so I am assuming these must have something to do with my e-mail. I know that the e-mail has been downloadedas I synched it with a Yahoo account I have and then disconnected from the Internet and I could still access all my mail from the Zimbra desktop. So how do I export this file so that I can then import it into another mailbox?

You should not post duplicate messages in the forums on the same topic.

You've given no details of which version of ZD you're using nor which operating system. If you're not using ZD 7 beta then I'd suggest you download it and try that and see if it works.

Maybe this is his way of saying that issue was addressed in the this update? I don't know, most answers I see on these forums seem to be in hieroglyphics and need interpreting.
I was asked which OS and which version when I posted the problem. I replied supplying the information and got no response. If my response had been read it would have shown that I was using the latest version. So upgrading to the latest is not an option.

Your reply was read and you're not using the latest version, the latest version is Zimbra Desktop 7. If you read my original post I suggested you try that and see if the problem exists in that version.
I go to the official link for Zimbra Desktop - "http://www.zimbra.com/products/desktop.html"
and it says quite clearly:
+++++++++
"Downloads
Latest Version:
Zimbra Desktop 2.0.1"
What page are you looking at? Is 7 now the latest official version? It seems to me it's a beta.
I am also still unclear on whether the backup in the version I have doesn't work - or just doesn't work for me. Is this a known problem with the version I have? Have other people who've had the problem I'm having with the backup had it fixed by 7?
I will read up further on 7 on my own and look at the upgrade but if you could address my questions above I would appreciate it.
