By accident i made a backup of FossaMail with Mozbackup instead of with FMbackup.
Now i am - after unstalling FossaMail and reinstall my laptop - unable to restore this backup; neither in FossaMail nor in Thunderbird.
Does anybody know a solution?

Restoring Fossamail
Re: Restoring Fossamail
Right, this might work:
Rename the TB b/u with the default form for a FM b/u and import it.
I've just done this: the Import in FM left out a lot so I tried the FM b/u tool to get the format of the name, used Mozbackup, renamed the .pcv from Mozbackup to FM2016_11_27_00.fmbackup, restored it with FM b/u tool and it worked!
FM wasn't totally stable - the column headings for mail were flickering - but I disabled/removed all the incompatible themes and extensions and now it seems to be working.
HTH & good luck!
