Upon looking at the .icedove folder with File Manager, I discovered that the
account that was working OK was under my ownership, but the others were open
only to root (in Trisquel ?) so I did this:
> sudo chown -R george.users ~/.icedove/*
Which gave me the needed ownership ... alas, still to no avail. I 'spose that
root owned them because I used sudo with the mv command ... Shouldn't
Trisquel automatically make ownership of files under ~.icedove/* be
consistent with the ownership of the Icedove application ? I'm not asked for
my password to open Icedove.
Please also tell me why, when I navigate to an Inbox file, that I cannot
right click and select, "open with icedove" ? Not even on the ones that
Icedove opens in its normal course of business.
