I had to change the root directory where all my bat data was stored. All i did was copy everything in the "emaildata" directory (where all my accounts and messages are stored) and put them in a new directory. All the emails show up and all the accounts are there, but none of the settings and options transferred. As in, even though all the accounts show in my list, none of the smpt/pop servers and account settings were transferred. And none of the filters transferred or anything. Is there a way to recover this or am i screwed? I don't have the original directory anymore.
I also have a the bat's own backup available, but since then, I've received a couple of emails so the backup is now older than the new files, so I don't completely want to restore it. I know what you're thinking...how did I get new messages when the settings weren't set? Well, initially after transferring the files, a wizard popped up in the bat asking about overwriting some files or something. i said no. Then everything was working ok and the account settings looked to be fine. I even received a couple of emails.
Then i don't quite remember what i did, but i think I was worried that I should have overwritten the files i said no to. So I copied them over the existing files. Now, all the account settings are gone.
Any advice is appreciated.
