I was told this is the place to ask this question:

Background - I am running build 0.9.4 and don't want to change until I
can resolve this issue.  (Unless getting 0.9.7 will fix the problem.). 
I am also running Win 98 SE.

I've been using build 0.9.4 since mid October last year.  A couple of
quirks but mostly stable.  Has never given me any great problems.

Sunday morning, I fired up my connection to my ISP, got my new mail,
answered a few and logged off.  Around 9:30, I had to reboot but
shutdown went fine.

Late afternoon, I fired up my connection to my ISP and started Mozilla.

When I started Mozilla, it showed me the list of profiles and I picked
my main one.  (The others are for testing some other things.)

Now it gets crazy.

Mozilla gives me the impression that it doesn't know anything about the
details of this profile.  The first thing I noticed was that it came up
in "navigator" mode.  I did have it set to come up in "mail" mode.

Then it came up in a Wizard to fill in the rest of the info it needed. 
It's like it knew about the existance of the profile but the content of
the profile is gone.

Now, here's more bizarreness.  it looks like my structure is still
there.  Where the profiles seem to be kept, I see my mailbox folders.  I
see inbox which you would expect but I also see my other mail folders.

Here's the questions:

1) What happened?  Is this a known anomoly?

2) More importantly, how do I get it to recognize the mailboxes and are
still sitting on my system.  I have 3 months of mail in the mailbox
(this is my "tickler" file if you know what that is) and lots of new
e-mail addresses that I don't really want to lose.

ANybody got any ideas on what I should do now?

Thanks in advance for ANY help you can offer.
