The steps to follow to change or add a new connection string in Web.Config’s connection string section. Basically you only need import the System.Web.Configuration namespace, open the Web.Config file where is connectionstrings section and change or add a new connectionstring. An example is:

Configuration webConfig = WebConfigurationManager.OpenWebConfiguration(”~”);
ConnectionStringsSection dbConnString = webConfig.ConnectionStrings;

// To change existing connectionstrings
dbConnString.ConnectionStrings["DBconnection"].ConnectionString = “YOUR NEW CONNSTRING HERE”;

//To Add new connection string
dbConnString.ConnectionStrings.Add(
new ConnectionStringSettings(”MDBTest”, “MDB ConnString”, “System.Data.OleDb”));

webConfig.Save();

One of the new configuration options in IIS7. we will be able to configure the settings for an IIS7 application using web.config rather than having to go through the admin utility of old (you can of course use the admin utility as well…which has been significantly revamped). For example, you can add the following XML into web.config to configure the default pages for a site as well as specify if directory browing is enabled.

To convert the Thunderbird Email to Windows Mail , we need to use a tool that convert the mbox format to .eml format. I found this free one that seems to work pretty well: http://www.broobles.com/imapsize/th2outlook.php

Just follow the instructions in #3 “Convert mbox files to eml files” and then drag the .eml files into the apropriate folder in Windows Mail.
