[GNC] Lost all my transactions on Gnu cash

[Geert Janssens]

Hi Georgina,

You may not realize you sent this mail to me in private, while it was expected 
to go to the mailing list.

Please remember to always reply to the mailing list instead of individuals. 
That way you are much more likely to get a helpful answer.

In order to reply to the mailing list you can use the "Reply to all" or "Reply 
to list" buttons or menu items in your e-mail program.

I realize some clients tend to hide these options, but if you look carefully 
you will always find some function to do so.

I'm forwarding your message to the mailing list on your behalf so the 
community as a whole has a chance to help you.

Regards,

Geert
