I take that to mean the old link contained within the text will NOT be changed, and the actual URL of the imported message will be different ...right?

So that means clicking on the old link in the imported message will do a two-step hop and actually find the imported message in the new message board?

I hope that the cgi-bin area will be left untouched, because I am hoping to do a Trial, then Final conversion. I need to be sure the old board will not be affected by installing and importing it to Threads.

If the redirect is going to work, does that mean the actual message numbers will not be changed during the import?
