Without the backup you will need install The_Bat! on XP to get the
proper registry pointers and keys and then move the entire
The_Bat!\Mail directory over to the install then start The_Bat! and
create the mail accounts utilizing the EXACT name you used in the
Win2k installation (i.e. the folder names under your Mail directory).
At this point you should see after you type in the account name that,
as you toggle through the account information screens, that The_Bat!
recognizes all the other information and message base files.

What you are doing is actually recreating the accounts so all your
mail and folders will appear when you finish the account creation
(recreation).

I hope that I have explained this properly enough to get you on your
way back to your old messages.
