Sorry for the newbieness, but I set up Sylpheed for my email client, and accidently chose POP3 instead of IMAP when I set up my account, so when I downloaded my emails, they were deleted off the server.

I installed DSL to my hard drive, so the emails are on my hard drive, but how do I put them back on the server?

It won't let me reconfigure my account to IMAP (the option is greyed out).

Please help.

Unless you have server level access I think your only option is to resend the emails to yourself. To setup sylpheed with an IMAP account you will have to choose 'Create new account' and select IMAP.
