Hi,
I had to re install everything incl. SeaMonkey but, I backed up
everything before I started. How do I restore my inbox?
thanks,
Rick
There are extensive instructions in the Mozillazine kb about
migrating your profile including explanations of what's in all the
files you find in your profile
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_SeaMonkey
Thanks to all of you who responded. I think that I had saved the
wrong file and so all the fixes mentioned above would not work. I
think that I needed to save the folder Mozilla.org and not Seamonkey.
Thanks again,
John
As i said ... your inbox is here:
I have two files:
C:\Documents and Settings\RAY\Application
Data\Mozilla\Profiles\default\gt6bfqi6.slt\Mail\pop.scarlet.be\inbox
and
C:\Documents and Settings\RAY\Application
Data\Mozilla\Profiles\default\gt6bfqi6.slt\Mail\pop.scarlet.be\inbox.msf
AND mozilla.org have nothing to do with your inbox mozilla.org.
mozilla.org is the "program part" ....your inbox is in the "profile
part"
....as Daniel said ....
My first step would be "In SeaMonkey, have a look at
Edit->Mail&Newsgroup Account Settings, then select your Mail Account
then have a look at the Local directory folder at the bottom of
window. This will tell you where your profile is on your hard drive."
Step Two Make sure all your Windows folders are un-hidden:-

Then close SeaMonkey, and continue as directed by Rob.
There is where we disagree. My inbox was indeed in a file called
Mozilla.org. there is absolutely no question about that.
John
Did you have a look, in SM, at where it thinks your Local Directory is??
Daniel
Hi Daniel,
Yes I did, I keep a printout of all the files on my system and update
them monthly. The only inbox was in the folder Mozilla.org.
So your profile is in the wrong location .....
