Hi,

I had subscribed to a Feed a few days ago via the SM2.1 internal Feed
reader as part of the messenger.

Today, after restarting SM, I had 2 folders present, both with the same
funny name extension, both without any content.
I checked the subscription settings - both folders contained no
subscription.

So I deleted the first folder inside messenger. I first had to purge the
trash, to delete the other one as well (duplicate name).
That folder re-appeared after restart of SM.
So I stopped SM, went to the profile, wiped all associated files, and
restarted again.
(Reference:
/Users/XXX/Library/Application
Support/SeaMonkey/Profiles/YYY.default/Mail/Feeds )

Now messenger is clean again. (No folders, no subscriptions for that feed.)

However, re-subscribing does not work - it complains "already subscribed".

I "grepped" about:config and the profile directory, no hits - where can
I find and eliminate that reference?

Since problem persisted, I had another look:
It seems the feed identity and even plenty of feed items were still present in

/Users/XXX/Library/Application Support/SeaMonkey/Profiles/YYY.default/Mail/Feeds/feeds.rdf and
.../feeditems.rdf

I removed the entries in feeds.rdf (1 entry in the list of feeds and the feed itself), and now I can re-subscribe. :-)

(No clue, why I did not find those entries the last time I searched for them...)

I'm not sure, why the feed was not shown in the "manage subscriptions" list - maybe because the containing folder did not exist?

Best regards
Philipp
