Well, the "profile" is where all the application settings, e-mail, etc. are stored, and there is always one there. If you add a new profile, you can see if a bad setting in your existing profile is causing problems, but I wouldn't expect your e-mail to show up there, as the e-mail will (should?) be in the original profile. I think the next step is to look in your profile directory and see if the e-mail files are there. By the way, do you use POP e-mail? Do you leave your messages on the server? The way most people use e-mail, they use POP and download the messages to their local machine. In this case, each mail "folder" will be a separate file under your profile directory. Are the "mail folder" files there? _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
