I would first save a copy of your entire profile.
If you mean the name of your SeaMonkey profile, go to [Tools > Switch
Profile]. Select the Manage Profiles button. Select the profile you
want to change and then select Rename Profile.
If you mean the name of a mail-news account, open the Mail & Newsgroups
window. Select the account, right-click, and select Settings from the
pull-down context menu. On the main Settings pane, change Account Name.
If you have trouble afterwards, restore your profile from the saved copy.
I've changed account names many times with no consequences whatsoever.
It doesn't change the folder name in the profile, which is set when the
account is created, it just changes the display name for my convenience.
I can confirm this, my gmail account's physical mail folder is still
named for my original old dialup ISP mail server.

Take care,
