Mine as well (well, as good as could be expected for an alpha marketed as 
ready for normal use, still huge gaps in functionality, etc, thus the 
alpha label because that's what it /means/ only minimal functionality, 
with much of the functionality only stubbed in or not there at all, which 
was /exactly/ where 4.2 was at, /despite/ the claims to the contrary from 
the one side while still trying to say, oh, that's not implemented yet, 
from the other!But I think I had my email in a custom location already).

But that was because I copied over the 3.x directory to the 4.x location, 
so 4.x could see it and use or import the same settings.  I've customized 
enough that such was the only sane way to do it, really.

Then several months later I went thru and deleted (or moved away, to be 
deleted later if it didn't turn out to reset anything drastically, nothing 
was so reset...) anything that hadn't been modified since before the 
upgrade.
