At the prompting of the Seamonkey Project, I downloaded the new
version 2.22.1 to my Mac OS X 10.5.8. I previously used 1.1.13
version.I am aware that the older version stored in Mozilla and the
newer in Seamonkey.

I installed  v2.0 <http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/2.0> and
after that, upgraded to the latest version.

I have been able to retrieve my address book but not the lost emails.

Can someone help me on this please?

The format of the emails hasn't changed, so it must be a problem with your old emails not being in your profile. There is a file called profiles.ini (at least on Linux and Microsoft systems), which gives the location of each profile.
by default is of the form :
----
[General]  = first section
StartWithLastProfile=0

[Profile0]  = section for each profile
Name=default
IsRelative=1
Path=27tkd5t4.default
----

This gives you the path to each profile.
Under the profile is a directory called Mail
Under Mail, there is a directory for each email account.
(In your case probably something like pop.usa.net )

Your emails will in these account directories, with * and *.msf files for each mailbox, plus the filterlog.html, msgFilterRules.dat, and popstate.dat files. (The *.msf files are indexes to the emails. the *filter* files control filtering, and popstate.dat the downloaded emails still on the server.)

The format of these files hasn't changed, so if you don't have any files under Mail, restoring your backup email files should work.
If the Mail folder is missing, you can just recreate it.

Hope that helps


Thanks, Gita
