Wait a minute. You didn't mention installing TB on the new machine.
Did you do that? Or did you just copy the whole thing (program and
mail base) over?
The difference? Upon installation, TB make changes/additions to the
registry. Most, *but not all*, of them are under the HKCU...\RIT
tree, as explained several times on the list.
Those not under the tree are not user-specific or system-specific,
so there's no need to move those settings when you move a TB
configuration from one machine to another. But that doesn't mean you
don't need those settings. If you haven't installed TB on the new
machine, therefore, it's wise to do it now.

I'm not sure it's related to what's said above. Why don't you try it
(unless you've installed TB; just didn't mention it) and see if it
helps.
Or see if others have better clues.
