Have you looked in the installation directory?
Where is you mail data kept, in the Mail directory in your
installation directory, or are you using the newly supported location,
i.e., C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\BatMail
I used the default/original/old directory structure, i.e. MAIN
for all data files.

Tried this which is part of the mystery. TB! restores only
*some* of the common folders while ignoring others which
leaves me with the question of how to get TB! to recognize them.
The *.abd is devoid of all entries. So I don't get that either.
AM> Interesting problems. I'm sorry that I can't more solidly help

I did that as well but I've found that on actually releases,
it's sometimes better to clean out the old(er) files & start
clean.
In *any* event, it seems to me that a TB! re-installation
shouldn't be such a mystery at this stage of development. This
has been a long running issue of sorts -- perhaps even as long
as your request for a wide msg list view. <g>
If you or anyone has any further thoughts on my installation
questions, I'd sure appreciate hearing from you.
Thanks.
