didn't make the trip. 2.0.3's wizard said it had imported
everything,
but no evidence of that. Asking 2.03 to import the missing items
after
installation was fruitless since I don't use Eudora, Outlook, etc.
The
browser itself was functional. 1.1.18 is now back in use.

The OS is XP SP3.

Yes, I have a nonstandard SM installation. Program files are
installed
to:

E:\Mozilla\SMonkey

to keep my boot partition smaller, which makes boot partition image
backups easier. 2.0.3 was installed to the same location.

1.1.18's config files have always been in the standard place:

C:\Documents and Settings\[myname]\Application Data

Has anyone dealt with this before, or can point me to a page where
someone has?






I had issues like that clear back when they came-out with
SeaMonkey 2-
the best way is not to upgrade until they get all the bugs
worked-out, I
think there's a settings under preferences, advanced for Seamonkey
not
to search for a upgrade. Stay tuned to this channel for news of
when a
good version comes out.

I'm afraid you're wrong there.

The problem the OP posted was one of a problem profile migration. That
is not a flaw in the program itself, but in the migration process.
That
is not going to improve. Anyone who is waiting for an improved
migration
tool is going to have a long wait. In fact, the profile migration will
probably go away entirely, though that will be a while.

The real answer is to migrate the data manually. It may be a pain but
once its done its done, and you willbe positioned to move on.

Yes, we all hope that there will be many improvements to the suite,
but
an improved migration tool, probably not.

Okay, that worked. Thank you very much.

For those who might Google this in the future, I copied the CONTENTS of
1.1.18's *.slt folder (not the folder itself, but from within the
folder) to the clipboard, made a backup copy of 2.03's as-installed
*.default folder (just in case) and then deleted the contents of that
folder. I then Pasted the copied contents of 1.1.18's *.slt into 2.03's
new *.default folder. That folder, containing 2.03's config files,
is in
the new 2.03-created Seamonkey folder visible from:

C:\Documents and Settings\[myname]\Application Data\Mozilla

Et voila.

Can someone now explain to me what the heck the red underlines under
certain words are about, when you're typing a message in 2.03?

Craig

Its your spellchecker, flagging a misspelling.

Ah. Not misspellings, just not in the dictionary. I had it turned off in
1.1.18.

Craig

You can always right click and add them to the dictionary.

Lee

I had it turned off, before. Forgot it was there and didn't recognize it when it showed up again.
