OK.  I emerged Thunderbird.  I figure it is likely to be the closest to
Seamonkey and someone mentioned that there was some nice changes to it
recently.  Since I haven't seen it in a while, I figured I'd look at it
at least.  Once I opened it, it looks a lot like Seamonkey once I set
the panes like I want.  So I started trying to work with it. 

First, getting it to access my email was easy enough.  It asked for my
name, email address and password.  I entered it in and off it went. 
Right off the bat, it got two new emails, Google confirming it was me on
something new.  I was like, yeppie!  Then I got the panes like I
wanted.  It's different once you have emails to look at and off the home
screen.  As I was looking around, mostly trying to find the Menu bar, I
found a import tool.  It even listed Seamonkey to import from.  I was
like, Oh yeah Baby.  I went through that process and made sure to select
the right profile.  I have two profiles on Seamonkey for when one
profile is giving me fits.  Anyway, I just clicked through the import
screens and it worked at it for a little bit.  Given the amount of
emails, I think it was to fast.  Anyway, it wanted to restart so I did. 
The only emails were the original two emails.  No folders, filters or
anything that I can see and certainly no old emails.  I've tried
adjusting View settings to make sure I have it set to see all emails.  I
thought maybe I had it set to only view NEW emails.  I have it set to all. 

I tried the import tool again, it added a new folder but that is it. 
Still nothing of the old emails.  Is there a manual way to copy the
emails, filters and such over?  I think emails and filters is really all
I need.  I think I can just copy the contents of the Mail folder but not
sure and no idea on how to copy the filters over. 

Anyone have knowledge on this?  It looks like Thunderbird and Seamonkey
use the same type of system but don't want to screw it up, beyond repair
or something.  LOL  Oh, I installed thunderbird-146.0.1.
