Don't know what you mean.

Need exact steps to reproduce.



my machine has a C: drive for programs, and an F: and G: drive for 
backup storage. In the past I have always directed the local folders 
to one or the other of the storage drives where all archives are kept.


for while now, whenever I reboot the machine, the local folders has 
lost contact with the path to the storage drive that is selected in 
Account Settings: /media/sean/7DCF1DCD6715DC30/local folders


Which operating system are you attempting to do this from? Mention of 
C:, F: and G: drives looks like Windows, but /media/sean/... looks like 
a Linux path. Your user-agent header also indicates that you're posting 
from Linux, although that may not be the system you're having problems 
with.


If Linux, it may be worth checking that the disk is mounted before 
starting SeaMonkey.


If you're attempting to share a single SeaMonkey profile between both 
Windows and Linux, that won't work - particularly in this case where 
there are paths which need to be specified differently on the two systems.





While I run both Win10 and PeppermintOS Linux... I only access SM from 
within linux... pardon my dominate windows terminology.


My machine mounts all drives at start up... it's a trivial thing to link 
Seamonkey back to the proper drive... just wonder why the settings don't 
"stick"

What do you plan to Delete from the browser window?

The Delete button is for messages in the Mail & Newsgroups window.

It is located between the Junk and the Mark buttons in the Mail Toolbar in my 
SM on Win10.

Just like here:





Sorry, I meant the MAIL window, not the browser window!

I deleted the Mark button a while back; the Mark button is now down in the bin 
of available buttons, where I expected to find the Delete button.

I'll keep experimenting; maybe a reinstall of SM will turn it up.

Although who knows what changes Google may make to make their sites

If you want to delete mail or sent messages, you can use the Delete key on the 
keyboard, or you can use the File button and move messages to the trash from 
that.  There are advantages to using the File button, since it makes it easy to 
move messages between any two folders.



I've been using both of those methods since switching to Windows 10 -- but I receive and 
delete A LOT of messages, and the extra reaching and clicking for something as simple as 
"DELETE" has gotten tiresome.

I've been using SM 2.49.3 on WinXP and on Win7; both have a delete button, 
which I assumed was a native part of Seamonkey -- but could be something I 
added years ago, I just don't recall

Why would I want to change the file format?


That way, you could save the messages anywhere.  They do not have to be 
in the profile of the email reader.

Development of Sunbird, the Mozilla Calendar and appointments app, 
was discontinued quite a while back, but I have continued to use it 
without problems. Unfortunately, the HD I was running it on started 
to play up and I lost access, so I installed it on another computer 
and carried on.


I have now resurrected the "bad" HD, but I want to transfer all the 
historical data sitting there in Sunbird to the new computer. Problem 
is, I cannot figure out what Sunbird file this data resides in, so I 
cannot even attempt to transfer the file to the new install in the 
hope that Sunbird will somehow pick it up and display the contents.


Can't find any info about this anywhere, so I'm posting my query here 
in case there is someone who can help.


As you suggest, Sunbird is very, very, old, and, I think, you'll find 
no longer supported.


However there is now an extension called "Lightning" which, I think, 
does the same sort of stuff, and you might find support for it in the 
newsgroup mozilla.support.calender on this server.


Give it a go.
You are right -- Sunbird is very, very, very old, and is no longer 
supported. But then, I'm also very, very, very old too, but things still 
seem to work okay. Wait ... what was that creaking sound?


I had looked through the Mozilla group names but failed to see the 
calendar one, so thanks for that! Subscribed, did a search for Sunbird, 
and found a thread back in 2012 that discussed precisely my problem. I 
simply moved the content of the existing profiles fold out and replaced 
it with the old stuff that I have recovered, and the whole think worked 
perfectly displaying all the old data. So again, thanks for that tip!
