At the prompting of the Seamonkey Project, I downloaded the new

How can I retrieve this?
Thanks.
As far as I understand it, the upgrade path from v1.x would be to
install v2.0 <http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/2.0> and after
that, upgrade to the latest version. So, download 2.0, trash your
2.22.1, delete ~/Library/Application Support/SeaMonkey/, install 2.0 and
then see whether your mail is back. If not, restore your profile in
~/Library/Application Support/ from backup and try again.
From memory, the old 1.x branch stored its profile in
~/Library/Application Support/Mozilla whereas the newer releases
migrated the profile into ~/Library/Application Support/SeaMonkey. The
latest releases to not do the migration directly, which is why
installing 2.0 is required.
Best of luck with it.

It's just ~/Library/Mozilla on the old 1.x stuff but....
he'll have an additional problem in that you need OS X 10.6 to run SM
2.14 or higher;

Excellent point! I'd completely forgotten about Leopard support being
discontinued. That's make 2.13.1 the latest supported release for Gita.
<http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/2.13.1>
So, Gita, if you're still with us:
Follow the same original upgrade path as spelled out before, but with a
minor change:
1. Delete your ~/Library/Application Support/SeaMonkey folder;
2. Install SM 2.0 <http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/2.0>;
3. Let it migrate your profile (your mail should be in place already);
4. Open preferences and disable automatic checking of SM updates;
5. Install SM 2.13.1 <http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/2.13.1>.
Let us know how it goes.
Oh, and get Time Machine happening already. ;-)
On second thought, re: 1 - RENAME your SeaMonkey folder rather than
delete it. As you've received new mail, maybe somebody can help you
through the process of recovering the new mail you've already downloaded
into SM 2.x
