Fixed!

This one kind of isn't a bug but I did change the way it works.  When you copy a message base its a literal copy of the original so the "storage filename" field stays the same.  This means when you delete it, its possible to also delete the data in the original base too.

I have changed it to not reset the Exports unless you answer Yes to the "Delete data files?" question that way this is less likely to happen.  It
turns out I already had the file base configuration working this way!

Another possiblity to make this work better is that when you select to "Paste" I could have Mystic force you to type in a new storage filename.
