If you still have a copy of your old profile directory, look into it and
you will see the Mail directory containing "Local Folders" and e.g.
"pop.blah.com"

in each of these you will find files representing the folders and
filters.



Its been a while since I tried this but if you copy a set of files e.g.
Inbox and Inbox.msf into the corresponding location in your current
profile while thunderbird is closed, when you open it the folder should
be as it was.



These are fairly straight forward text files so you can try doing
things like appending an old inbox to a current inbox using cat
oldinbox >> newinbox etc.
