I've used this exact one and recovered all useful data from several friend's
failing laptop drives...and, wow, if you want to be someone's friend for
life just have one of these $6 baby wonders handy.  An NTFS disk repair
is often helpful if you can't get good data: do it under MY COMPUER and
right click on the drive, properties, tools, error checking...or, run CHKDSK
from the command box with the fix option.
 
Not sure about Mozilla in POP3 mode.  I only know the IMAP configuration
where the messages are on the server.  However, you might try some path
that looks like this:

C:\Documents and Settings\yourusername\Application Data\Mozilla\Profiles\default\042nmj9j.slt\Mail\Local Folders

Be careful, the path string may be too long for a DOS program to handle on your
particular disk.

These are the guys I might send it to.  After my software scan I will
decide.  After talking with them they sound ok.

Note on Gillwares website about their one exception to a no-charge for
data
recovery.

Broken Warranty Seals
If the warranty seals are broken, we cannot offer the no recovery no fee
deal. Because previously-serviced drives without intact warranty seals
usually require significantly more time for us to diagnose and repair,
we
require a $150 upfront surcharge for servicing these drives. This
surcharge
is non-refundable.

In addition, the base fee for servicing a drive without intact warranty
seals is an extra $500 for a total of $1028.99 for Windows based drives
when
we're successful. If the platters have been visibly damaged during your
attempt you should save your money and not send it. If it was a
multi-platter drive and you attempted to remove the platters you should
save
your money and not send it.

I have the adapter on the way.  I will plug it into my desktop once
    
and
  
run a software recover utility once to see what happens.  After this,
    
I
  
will send it off to a cleanroom.  If a drive needs cleanroom work...
www.mjtdata.com says to send it to www.gillware.com
