I created a new profile for Seamonkey 2 and am trying to manually

What problem did you have using the built-in migration? I have migrated
multiple accounts and machines, most with multiple profiles, and the
problems seem to be limited:
- you lose all your form fill data
- you have to migrate your profiles one at a time manually
(you can let auto migrate do the first if you wish)
I don't see any benefit from doing the migrate manually, I don't think
you can do a better job and you risk messing things up.
I was installing Seamonkey 2 on a new laptop and didn't see how migration would
work between machines.
Also, I'm still using 1.1.18 and WinXP on my other machines; and those profiles
are ancient, so I was hoping to try out SM 2 completely clean (while hoping not
to lose those features that are incredibly important to me, such as e-mail
filters and stored passwords). Anyway, I finally puzzled out how to move most
of what I need, and can live without the rest (form fill data, junk mail
training).
