I have 2 hard drives in my system NOT in an array. I was unable to
restore from my C drive so I had to install Vista to my D drive and
boot from that and restore to my D drive. I then rebooted from my C
drive and copied the User file from my D drive to my C drive and now I
do
not have my email settings. What folder/file are the email settings
in so I can copy them over as well?

Thanks!!

The account information is in the oeaccount files. The message rules and
such are in the registry and you probably lost those. See
www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#wm

What you should probably do is to set up WinMail again and your accounts and
then you can use File | Import to get the old messages, which will be
located under %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Mail\

Whatever the old user profile was. You may first need to copy that
directory to Documents to prevent permissions issues and then try the
import.
