You should only have one 'Local Folders' in your profile and will contain: Drafts Sent Templates.msf Unsent Messages Drafts.msf Sent.msf Trash Unsent Messages.msf msgFilterRules.dat Templates Trash.msf Standard warning applies: *Backup your SeaMonkey folder - or copy your entire .mozilla folder to another location* For LF-1 etc., I'd look at the folder to see the date files in the folder have been accessed. If they are not today's date and are months/years old, then I'd simply _move_ them to another non-mozilla backup folder (i.e., a temporary backup folder). Then restart SeaMonkey & check to make sure that all of your accounts are working properly. If one is missing, shut SeaMonkey down and move the folder back from the backup folder. If all are working, keep the folders for a month or two & then delete if you're sure you don't need anything in them. Note: I've accumulated several of these 'somepopmailaccount.isp-1(2,3,4)' over the years as well. I generally take a look at the .msp file to see if any of the messages are of value, if so I keep the folder so that I can reenable that email address to read the messages for archive purposes. I then move those to a current account archive folder. See: <http://kb.mozillazine.org/Moving_your_mail_storage_location_%28Thunderbird%29> for information on moving/adding a mail/news folder. Note: you can create a new profile, then use that to review/keep/delete the -1,2,3 folders. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
