    Recovering (POL) Read Friends List Messages

    I recently upgraded from 32 bit to 64 bit Windows 7. I had to install the correct POL version(x64). Now when I launch the proper version of POL, I no longer have any read F/L msgs. Are these msgs saved on the HDD? If so, I still have the old 32bit version POL folder. Could someone please help me out? Thanks in advance!

    Its usually server side. I don't know much about pol mail but if the messages are read then they may have been deleted if they werent save.

    I suggest that you login, update everything, and sync mail. bc usually on first installs theres nothing there because of how pol mail works.

    also this probably would have been better in the random question thread (EVEN THO FUCKERS LOVE TO NOT REPLY)

    POL's mail is a POP3 system. When you download the mail from the server, it's gone from the server and is stored locally.

    Those are where your F-list Messages are.

    \homeXX\ <<< iirc it's the handle.
    \r\ << "Recieved"
    \s\ << "Sent"
    \a\ << idk
    \b\ << idk
