When I start Thunderbird, none of my mail accounts are there, and rebuilding the Global Database didn't work.

Yesterday I started Tbird and none of my accounts showed up. I can see that the mail folders for the accounts are still present in AppData/Roaming/Tbird/Profiles. Created a new account for one of my web-based email accounts, and now that works, but I still can't get it to find my other accounts. I tried deleting the global-messages-db.sqlite file to get it to rebuild, without success.

Is there a file I can manually edit to point to the existing mail accounts?

The Global Database tracks email messages, so won't help with the non-display of accounts.
