I got my email working and was able to get all the inbox folders from
the old computer transferred to the new. Now how do I get the Address
Book transferred. I do not see and extension named like Address Book.
abook.mab (mozilla address book) ought to be in the profile's root.
Looks like http://seamonkey.ilias.ca/profilefaq/ covers that and more.
Why copy little pieces? I normally use a desk top at home and a laptop
on the road. The app is one tree, the profile is another tree, and the
mail files are another tree. I just copy all the trees from the desk
top to the laptop before I leave and then copy them back when I return.
I also copy all the trees to other desktops for back up. And OS/2 and
Win SM and Win Pale Moon/Foosa all use the same profile and mail files
The point is, the process of "moving to a new computer", is something I
do on a regular basis. It is not a big deal. Why does it need to be?
You need planning, especially on systems using drive letters and there
is also the problem when using different versions, especially
downgrading to an older version. This can be most obvious going from Win
to OS/2 as the OS/2 version is usually about a year out of date. The
same problem is potentially capable of happening with Foosa as it was
forked some time back.
