My wife has been using Mozilla 1.7.13 (on Mac OSX Panther) for quite some time. I'm am keen to move her to SeaMonkey (with Moz being as long in the tooth as it is and not being updated). She is loathe to switch to something new but I presume that using SeaMonkey would be not that different from what she's used to with Mozilla.

HOWEVER, I would need to easily migrate her Inbox and numerous subfolders, bookmarks, etc., etc. WITHOUT a million headaches.

There is no mention of this on the mozilla.org web pages (that I've seen) and I consider newsgroups to be a better resource generally.

So... has anybody made this transition on OSX and is it fairly simple to accomplish? It would be SO nice if the installation asked "Want to use the Moz data?" but I don't expect that, considering the TBird used to be oh-so-ready to import Outlook Express data but not TBird data!

Thanks for replies!

its as simple as this: when you install SM, it will start using the Mozilla Suite profile. You can't get any more simpler than that.

Just one thought though: don't use Moz and SM on the same profile.

One more thought: if she knows Moz Suite, then SM will come naturally. They're the same program, except SM is a little more advanced than Moz.

Incase you don't know, the profile is where all the data, bookmarks, prefs, passwords, etc. are stored.
