4.41 total melt down

If you know where the old mail files are located on the hard drive you can probably move all of them EXCEPT the pmail.ini file into the new HOME and NEW mail directory.  Use Help | About Pegasus Mail | Info to determine the current home and new mail directories, it is probably the same directory for both of them.  Make sure that WinPMail is NOT running when you do this or you'll mess up the hierarch.pm.

Recently I lost PM.  I have no idea why or how.  I'm sorry that I can't be more informative regarding the problem, but I have no idea as to why the program died.  I changed the name to protect what (if any) information was salvageable, and downloaded/installed 4.41 again. 

Now, I would like to find out if it is possible to move heirarchy(?) information from the old PM to the new PM.  I'd like to move things like the mail boxes I've set up, address books, distribution lists into the new PM.  One last question.  Is it possible to move the emails (not necessarily all) from the old PM to the new PM maintaining where they are located in their respective mail box folders?

I am anything but computer literate, but I follow directions real well.  If anyone can help I'd be forever greatful.  I know this is a big task, but please help if you can.    Thanks in advance, Tom.
