And now the question. After starting from scratch by d/l
from the SM-Project site SM doesn't seem to use all of my
settings. Maybe some things aren't in the profile? View-sort
for History changed. Software d/l choices changed. Home page
changed. Theme changed, but recovered with restart. Message
filters disappeared.
So, why do these things happen? Aren't they generally in the
profile, and wouldn't the "new" SM use the profile? Why did
Mail and News accounts disappear, and had to be
reconstructed? Why are mail messages gone, and need
"surgery" to recover (yes, I know how, but it's a pain.) All
the mail folders and related files are right there in the
profile.
Ideas will be greatly appreciated.
You didn't specify your original nor final version.
You didn't specify your OS/platform.
The only similar problem I recall concerned going from SeaMonkey 1.x to
2.y and IIRC there are many warnings on that issue.
This was a failed "upgrade" from 2.12 to 2.12.1.
