Thank you, Paul, and Marco. Like I said, I had other reasons for purging signatures, other then making the backup smaller. Sigs have been getting a little out of hand lately, and this will help start everyone from square one with some new sig rules in place.
I probably shouldn't have mentioned the transfer thing, because I'm pretty sure I don't know what I'm talking about. All that information is stuff I "put together" from conversations I've had via email, rather then actual firsthand information. I think the backup was about 56M, but I'm not entirely certain. Our forum has been around for nearly 5 years, so there has to be some size issues going on.
Thank you again, and other then moving/deleting attachments (which I'm pretty sure are not in the database, but I'll check), am I correct in assuming that's the extent of trimming things down?
