Recovering Thunderbird Folders

2

My father accidentally deleted several important folders from Thunderbird. I have restored them from his backup, but they aren't showing up in the folder list.

My procedure was to restore the .sbd folder from the backup media to a Recovered Contents folder, and then drag it to App Data\Thunderbird\blah\Mail\Local Folders, but obviously there's more to it than that. What have I missed?
