Changing local directory back to default location
Hi,
I accidentally changed the storage location of my local directory without creating a profile first. Now, my older emails are gone and I need to revert back to the default directory location, but I can't access the Library folder on my mac when I'm in the "Select Local Directory" window.
Any help would be very much welcome!
