Filing trays in additional mailboxes

I worked out what I did wrong.

On one Machine I must have installed Pegasus in Multi-user mode and then setup a mailbox for myself. In the other I set it up for single user mode.

My Data restore thus had various files in the wrong location for  the mode Pegasus was in and thus no filing trays were showing.

I need to move to a different computer.

The majority of my mail is in additional mailbox folders, so it is pretty easy to copy the data over.

The issue I have however is that on the systems I am coming from I had  filing trays set up and mail categorized, however when I "add a mailbox" to the list while the extra directory tree is added I do not have any filing trays just each folder at the top level. This is not overly helpful :)

I had thought the structure would be containing in each separate mailbox folder and read in, but it appears not.

How can I import this structure?

Thanks

As a new user, (less than a week) I am certainly not an expert on Pegasus, so read/use the following with great caution. [:)]

A couple of days back, I installed Pegasus to it's default folder on PC#1.

This morning I installed a fresh copy of Pegasus on PC#2 to it's default folder and test ran it.

I then copied the entire PC#1 installation via the network on top of the PC#2 installation and both worked fine and are now duplicated as a backup on PC#2.

Proceed at your own risk !! [:O]

The mounting of multiple mailboxes feature can be used
for many purposes, one of which you employed.
However the primary purpose is to access another user's mailbox.
For this reason the folder hierarchy for both your mailbox, and any
that are mounted, is stored in the HIERARCH.PM of your mailbox.
Read about 'Accessing multiple mailboxes' in the PDF Manual.
I think it may be easier for you to recreate the structure, depending
upon how you performed new install and move to the ne location.
As the old HIERARCH.PM file may not have the same folder names
as used in the new install HIERARCH.PM.

I sorted out what I did wrong. On one machine I must have installed Pegasus in Mult-iuser mode and on the other in Single user mode. Of course my data restore would have  various files in the wrong location between installations.
