Claws-mail: how to transfer configuration?


I was running debbian wheezy and have upgraded to Jessie using Hydrogen (under Bunsen Labs).

I had claws-mail installed under wheezy and have installed it in Hydrogen. I would lke to transfer the configuration over. Is this possible, how to do this?

Thanks,

Joe

One of the advantages of claws is its simplicity. Were you to plug your question into a search engine I'm sure you'd get a simple answer.
IIRC it's just a matter of copying a couple of directories.

Just copy over the .claws-mail directory to your new home directory.

I wasn't sure if the configuration would be the same.
