You have dragged stuff by copy or move where if does not belong.Stuff that should be in your profile folder but is not in your Mail folders...basically everything *after* the "Unsent Messages" folder in mail. example: adblockplus should be located: %APPDATA%\Mozilla\SeaMonkey\Profiles\YOUR_SALT.default\adblockplus bug you have it here: %APPDATA%\Mozilla\SeaMonkey\Profiles\YOUR_SALT.default\Mail\SOME_MAIL_ACCOUNT\adblockplus If you go to mail folder in explorer %APPDATA%\Mozilla\SeaMonkey\Profiles\YOUR_SALT.default\Mail\SOME_MAIL_ACCOUNT\ and move everything *NOT* named Input, Drafts, Templates, Sent, Junk, Trash, Unsent Messages, their associated *.msf files, and possible *.dat files msgFilterRules.dat, popstate.dat, rules.dat; and move them to some other place before dumping, (if duplicates, or moving to proper place if not). Then start SeaMonkey the mystery mail folders will be gone. -- Take care, Jonathan --- LITTLE WORKS STUDIO http://www.LittleWorksStudio.com ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

How are you trying to remove them, and exactly what happens when you do that? Any error messages, noises, funny smells, smoke? ;-) I think it could be about the *.msf files that may remain in the hierarchy quit seamonkey, and examine if there is one of these .msf file for that folder and delete it. restart seamonkey -- cyberzen ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
