Problem sending mail - continued

This is a continuation of an earlier thread, but for reasons which
will become apparent, I cannot access the original thread to post a
reply:

I have been unable to send email via Freeserve from my RPC. Receiving
mail and news has been fine.

As part of an attempt to get a better understanding of the problem I
installed Messenger Pro and NetFetch on the Iyonix, where they worked
just fine. However the existing messages, filter settings, newsgroup
subscriptions etc were still on the RPC.

I therefore copied from the RPC to a new directory on the Iyonix
!Messenger, !Netfetch and !Newsbase. (Newsbase is 750MBytes, with
several thousand files, so I have been assuming that that is where the
mail and news are held. If not, where are they?) Running this up
successfully fetched mail. However it does not show the various
folders into which I have been filing mail, it does not have any
filters set, it has no newsgroup subscriptions of old messages, the
address book is empty, and it still will not send email.

So my first, and most important question is:

Where are the filters, mail folders, newsgroup folders, subscription
lists, address book held? I need to copy them over as well.

The second question is:

What in Messenger Pro/Netfetch/Hermes is likely to be preventing the
sending of emails, when a plain vanilla installation works? Note that
the broken installations (one on RPC, one on Iyonix) do send
sometimes, but only for a few hours, followed by 24 hours of not
sending.

And the reason I'm asking here? I can't send email - so newsgroups are
my only effective means of communication.
