Hi guys. I need help with a Netscape matter. Briefly, I have several
years' of valuable emails stored in Netscape. For reasons connected with
how Windows 7 on my new computer won't run Netscape, I have installed
Netscape 4.79 on another computer (a Hewlett Packard) having Windows XP.
Meanwhile, my previous main computer (an Acer, with Windows XP) had
Netscape 4.79 with those precious emails. It is still functioning but
seems likely to die soon.
On the HP computer the Mail folder for Netscape is located here:
C:\Program Files\Netscape\Users\muffin.
But I found that there was no exactly corresponding folder on the Acer
computer. Rather, I located: C:\Program Files\Netscape\Users\latest.
Well, inside 'latest' I located a Mail folder (207MB). So I copied that
onto my thumb-drive. Then I pasted that copied folder over the empty
Mail folder in the HP's 'muffin' folder (which duly showed 207MB).
But when I opened Netscape itself, no mail items would appear in either
the Inbox or the Sentbox.
I'm not even sure that 207MB is large enough to account for several
years' of emails (several each day), both Inbox and Sentbox. But I
couldn't see another likely folder.
Can anyone help, please?
Thanks - Ken (in Oz)
I run SM not Netscape, but try this
locate "local folders" under Seamonkey hierachy
paste your old mail folder under it (of 207 MB)
supress the *.msf files if any, they are index, hoping it should rebuild
them
