I have read that the folders which were deleted are still in the computer, but the method to restore them was confusing. Does anyone know how this can be done.

I had two accounts in my mail...both with the same name. Thinking this was redundant and that both had the same folders and subfolders in them, I deleted one of the accounts. Naturally the one I deleted was the one that had the necessary folders/sub folders which I had added and NEED to get them restored. I had read on "MozillaZine" that the folders were still somewhere on my computer, but the way to recover them was very confusing. Please someone help me get these back! I need step by step instructions!!! Thanks
