I did a reformat of my hard drive and backed up my messages beforehand. When
I went to configure OE and imported the messages, they no longer had the same
directory structure. I mean the subfolders were no longer subfolders but all
the folders were on the same level. I think I deleted folders.dbx or
something strange, knowing that I still had the original backup.

Can you tell me what I did? Thanks in advance.

The directory structure is an illusion anyway and was contained in the
Folders.dbx that was with the other DBX files. Enable the Folder List and
drag them where you want them.
