Sorry,
I just have *no other way to explain this to you*
TB IS NOT OUTLOOK !
The archive procedure and implementation of my extension is *absolutely* different and contrary to Outlook's..
My extension moves all messages that were sent/received before a particular date into ONE folder called "Archive"
The extension *does not* produce *one file* that can be transported to another machine and opened ( like in outlook )
the extension results *can NOT* be used to 'syncronize', 'backup' ( or anything else ) two computers..
Please ( PLEASE ! ) learn how to navigate TB's file structure. What you want to do can *easily* be accomplished with
a) a bit of knowledge
b) a bit of ingenuity
c) a bit of courage

TB stores its mail in ONE OS file per TB folder.. If that TB folder has subfolders, they will be stored in a OS directory named after that TB folder with an extension of .sbd..
Now, it follows that *if* you were to copy
a) the OS file ( with the TB folder name )
b) the OS directory ( with the TB folder name + .sbd )
from one computer to another, that TB folder and all of its subfolders will now exist on both computers.. You NEED NOT paste that file and directory in the exact same place on the destination computer..
Just be sure to have TB shut down before you perform the paste operation.. Then, once TB is started, it will *automatically* see the new folder ( and subfolders )
