If one were to use MozBackUp on my SeaMonkey 2.49.5 profile, prior to

If I remember correctly, that's something you can choose in the UI.
If I'm making backups by simply copying the profiles folder, I've gotten
in the habit of copying to my Downloads folder.
On the other hand, since my backup tool supports it (and I don't do
full-image backups), I make sure that my daily data backups include
%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Seamonkey, and as a result, I get backups every day.
I had actually run MozBackUp, in my Win7 entity, before asking my
question and I cannot recall seeing where it asked for a location, but
I'll run it, carefully, again, and see what happens. ;-)
That's my intention as well, but I'm pretty slack, so I figured if I
backed up the profile and then, later, either installed SM 2.53.4 *OR*
made a complete Harddisk clone/copy, it wouldn't matter too much!
For what it's worth, a couple of years ago, I was having problems with
Seamonkey crashes that were corrupting my POP inbox in the mail client,
and it was nice to be able to go to my backups and recover just the
inbox and index, as well as the POPSTATE.DAT file.
