The following should work:
If you open Windows Explorer, and navigate to your TB! installation
directory, you'll find a directory called 'Mail' (unless you've moved
it to another location).
Within this directory are other directories. Each of these denote an
account or a common folder. The account folders have the names of
your accounts so they're easily noticed.
Go Back to TB! and create a new account or accounts for the mail
folders you wish to be able to use in TB!.
Close TB! and then go back to explorer.
Copy the folders containing the mail you wish to use to the account
directory for the account you just created.
Restart TB!.
If the folders have not appeared (I doubt they would), hit
Shift-CTRL-Alt-L. This will make TB! search for lost folders.

Yes. This option synchronises one TB! installation with another so
that the target installation is updated to have all mail/accounts/
template/address book information etc as the source installation.

That restores a TB! installation that used TB!'s backup utility to
create a backup of.
