Thanks, Paul. That was exactly what I needed. I had forgotten that everything is kept under that random alphanumeric-string sub-folder. I have always just copied the Profiles sub-folder and everything underneath it to a backup drive, then replace the 'Profiles' folder under 'Seamonkey' whenever I ahve moved to anew laptop or desktop. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
