Hi I am an avid Seamonkey user. Unfortunately, our University requires us to 
use an IMAP server. Seamonkey does that very well but prefers to be used mostly 
on its own without any other POP3 email account/s. If you start out with a POP3 
account or two and a good sized archived directory tree, installing an IMAP 
account wipes the POP3 access to the directory tree already installed. 
Installing an IMAP account on an already in-use POP3 Seamonkey and IMAP wants 
to install another directory tree of its own but denies a POP3 account/s access 
to its/their former mail archives directory tree. It seems apparent that an 
IMAP account and a POP3 account on the one Seamonkey installation ensures that 
the two will not comfortably co-exist. I haven't tried it with Thunderbird as 
yet but I presume the same would apply....?? Ideally, the IMAP account would 
exist in the same way as a normal POP3 account and use the same archive 
directory tree.
Also, It is very hard to find the IMAP new account configurations when there is 
a previous POP3 account or two on the one Seamonkey installation. Why can't we 
have both and each using the one set of emails archiving folders?
