PS: Forgot to mention that I want to clear all that stuff on the ISP's server
(no doubt they keep copies :-)

I have nearly 1.0GB of data on my ISP's mail server (including Inbox/Sent etc
going back a long time). I am going to install Seamonkey24.0 on my system. I
would like to download all that data onto my computer including all the old
messages. Can I do this With Seamonkey? If so I would appreciate any help you
can provide. Thank you.
regards

It's for Thunderbird but it applies to SeaMonkey as well.
The last item is what you want:
"Archive some of your older mail. However, if you simply move them to
another folder on your IMAP server, you won't win back any space. To
resolve this, you need to set your "Archive" folder under your "Local
folders" account and not as a subfolder of your IMAP account. "
The "Local folders" are not synched with the IMAP server. So, if you
move messages from, say, the Inbox to Local folders, they will disappear
from the IMAP server.
