	How do I disable ALL permission rules without opening ChoiceMail. (Error on startup)

Solution Please do the following.

1) Make sure ChoiceMial is NOT running. (for V4 and up make sure you open up the ChoiceMail Control Panel and STOP the service)
2) Go into the folder called \Rules located under the main ChoiceMail folder.
3) Find a file that has your username or email address and end with .xml
4) Open this file in notepad. (Right click on it and select open with and then selct notepad)
5) In Notepad select Edit->Replace and in the "find what" box type in
enabled="1"
For the "replace with box" type in
enabled="0"
(note that we want to change all occurrences of enable="1" to enabled="0")
6) Save the file and close notepad making sure you have made the correct changes.
7) Start ChoiceMail again.

All the rules should still be visible, but disabled.
