Thunderbird question

[karohemd]

Is there a way of recreating your old inbox from a different drive after installing it on a new computer?
Where does it keep its messages?
Update: Sorted thanks to astatine210.

Assuming you're using windows, it looks like the files are in
\windows\Profiles\[USERNAME]\Application Data\Thunderbird\Profiles\
or thereabouts.

Many thanks!
As the old PC was Win98, they were under WINDOWS/Application Data... but I just copied the files into the new folder and woohoo!
