I didn't see a post from Jeremy - did he maybe send it direct to you
rather than via the list? Or is my ISP playing up and losing things ...

Just as a further 'for next time', as well as just copying the whole
appdata folder over, you could just have copied the Mailinglists and
Filters files from C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\intellegit\gemini\
on your old machine to the same place on the new one after installing
and otherwise setting everything up.

(It shows how much I have forgotten and how messed up my brain is from 
medication side-effects that I wrote my last post thinking I couldn't 
know if you were using Windows, Linux or a Mac. It's teken until now to 
remember I could just 'view source' on your email and see the user-agent 
header to see you were on a Windows XP machine and have now moved to 
Windows 10!)
