Waitaminute. I may be guilty of not reading your problem report
carefully. I had assumed that you were _composing_ mail that you didn't
want to have to redo.

Any mail you were in-process of retrieving _should_ be somewhere under
~/.mozilla, no? If it isn't there, it probably didn't get retrieved from
your server, and should still be on the server, I would think.

If you are simply concerned about losing mail, you may be worrying
needlessly.

If you are concerned that mozilla has corrupted your inbox or saved
mail, then you _can_ check that through the filesystem. You can even
backup the .mozilla subdir-tree if you wanted to allow for perverse
failure behavior.
