I have not been able to figure out how to get my current TB (win 7) to read the mail folders I had copied over from a TB profile on a crashed xp drive. I cannot use backup/restore, because I can't run TB on the xp drive. I created a new local folder in my current mail profile, and copied the contents from my old mail folder into it, but it doesn't show up when you open the program. Is there a way to just copy over the individual folders or files, and what folder do you copy them into?
