OK, I bit the bullet and upgraded from 1.1.17 to 2.0.10 after a long

Everything went fine, just fine. No problem with intalling and getting
my profile migrated. Seamonkey 2.x is great... looks just like what I'm
used and operates to the 99.9% of what I'm used to.
But... when I click on the Mail icon, it takes from three to 15 (yes,
FIFTEEN) minutes to open that pane. During that time, all my computer
operations are frozen. Yes, I've compacted the folders. Yes, I've
deleted the *.msf files.
I also have a problem with News. When I click to open the server, it
seems to want to bring in the new messages in ALL the groups all at once
(which is annoying, since I don't want to read all groups subscribed
every day, or every time I open the server. It's also a weird thing that
each day one group is deleted (i.e., unsubscribed) from the server. OK,
that was two problems.
When I transitioned my 1.1.19 install I installed SM 2.0 first, then
2.0.10 over that...just to be cautious. Worked for me.
It's rather too late for that now. Any suggestions as to what's causing
these problems?
I'd suggest just rebuilding your Accounts/subscriptions under the new
2.x version. That's not risky, just tedious if you have a lot of
subscriptions.
Do you mean calling up the newsrc and resubscribing to the groups I wish
or something else? How can I keep this from happening again, though?
As long as your Local folders/files were moved intact, I'd try that.
I've never used the Local folders. In fact, under 1.x I attempted
removing them following the directions I found somehwere but it never
worked. Having them was a harmless annoyance I didn't pursue it further.
And about the other issue? The one that it takes an incredibly long
time to open a Mail window the first time?
