My method, which I've just worked out again as I forgot what I'd done previously) when I want to set up Firefox and Thundrbird in a new install, is to copy the old installs /home/xxx/.mozilla ( or /home/xxxx/.mozilla-thunderbird) to the /home/xxxx/ of the new install BEFORE running either Firefox or Thunderbird.

I then run ( in a terminal) sudo firefox-x.x ( ie firefox-3.5) -profilemanager ( or sudo thunderbird -profilemanager), which finds the copied user profile. Just accept it and then select "run" and it will set up everything and even download and install updated plugins etc.


Hope this helps - your Iceape should be included in all of this automatically I imagine.
