If you look in Netscape Users folder in Preferences, you will see the respective user profile folders that's created. You determine which one it is you're currently using for 4.78. In the profile folder for 4.78, you will see a mail folder that contains all mail related files. Don't worry about the xxxx.snm files, which is created for you once the mailbox is opened. Drag these over to the new profile created for 7.02 Mail folder. If the import utility runs without hiccups then you don't have to deal with any of this. (My transition also involved setting up a new account for a different provider.) The address book file is named pab.na2, which took me a while to figure out. The other files such as bookmarks, etc. are more obvious. After you move these files over, launch 7.02 and start the mail program and it will create its own directory list for the mail files that was brought over. Others may have better suggestions that makes the job go a lot easier. I am still not sure what to make of 7.02 but so far it's working ok. Maybe a bit slower response compared to 4.78.
