Have a look at Tools->Switch Profiles to see if you have more profiles

The e-mails that you have sent are stored in a file called sent. no
extension, just sent, although there should also be a file called
sent.snm, which is the index file for the sent file.
The e-mails that you receive are stored in a file called Inbox. no
extension, just Inbox, although there should also be a file called
inbox.snm, which is the index file for the inbox file.
Do a Windows Search for either of these files to find their locations.
Or, in SeaMonkey, have a look at Edit->Mail & Newsgroups Account
Settings, select "Server Settings" for your e-mail account and, at the
bottom of that screen, you should see the location of your Mail account
in the "Local directory" spot!

But what is the filename or extension I search for in indows explorer
to find the other profile on my computer.
Each profiles information is stored in a file called "prefs.js".
Each mail accounts received e-mails are stored in a fill called "inbox"
with its indexed file called "inbox.snm".
Each mail accounts sent e-mails are stored in a fill called "sent" with
its indexed file called "sent.snm".
Didn't I just type that??
You did, with numerous confusing and misleading typos.
The index files (not "fills") on Windows are *.msf, not *.snm. My
Windows installation has no files anywhere in the profile named *.snm. I
can't say what they will be on Linux.
Windows SM also has a file type *.sbd, which appears when a mail folder
has one or more subfolders. For example, I have a folder structure like
this (as viewed from inside SM):
Sent
└2006
└2007
└2008
└...
And the corresponding files are
Sent
Sent.msf
\Sent.sbd
└2006
└2006.msf
└2007
└2007.msf
└2008
└2008.msf
└...
So if I wanted to transfer my entire Sent folder, I would copy the files
Sent and Sent.msf and the folder \Sent.sbd.
