i have 5 different accounts and filters are not common, each account has its own filters.

I understood that the filters are stored in a file called account.srb (or "account.erb" in the event that when we're using an encrypted message).

When I went to copy the account.srb file (thus to have a back up copy of my current filters) noticed that the file "account.srb" is not in the Bat Main Folder/Directory. I searched on the computer for all possible file names, but I got no results.

the only file i saw with a similar ext is the file "Bat_srb.tip" which is a Tip file.

Has anybody had this problem before ?
is this the right file to copy and save as a back up ?
if not, where should i seek the proper file and what steps should i follow in order to trace my filters' files.

I'm using over two hundred filters and is a must to have a backup, will take me ages to create them from scrach.
