Will I lose my CustomMailer 3.0 preferences or macros when I install CustomMailer 4.0?

No, the first time CustomMailer 4.0 runs it will find your CustomMailer 3.0 folder and convert your 3.0 preferences file to the new 4.0 preferences format. It will also find your 3.0 macros file and make a copy of it in your 4.0 installation folder, and make that your 4.0 macros file. Since your 3.0 preferences file also remembers your most recent message template and mailing list files, those will be the message template and mailing list used when CustomMailer 4.0 starts up. CustomMailer 4.0 will even preserve your most recent 3.0 window settings including size and location. If you have CustomMailer 2.0 and never had CustomMailer 3.0, then CustomMailer 4.0 will perform the above conversions for your CustomMailer 2.0 files. However, CustomMailer 4.0 can’t go all the way back to CustomMailer 1.0 files.
