Best, Steve Holt Try going into the profile and saving your mailbox and news Directories and folders. and possibly your passwords. then completely remove the profile and dump in Trash (wastebasket) then reopen SM let it create an ew profile.

Hint: There's more there than what you've recommended that the OP save off. Following your recommendation, he would lose a lot of content just for this test. Why not just create a new profile and test using that? ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Normally you would, but he indicated as soon as you got to the browser SM dies (crashes) and if he should have set to open on web page rather than than mail news. what then?? if it will stay open long enough to do so by all means create a new profile.

At the very least, before you tell someone to delete a bunch of their files (for a test) at least advise them to back up the files first. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

That's the reason I suggested making back up copies of the mail and news folders, you can always re added your themes and extensions. If SM will allow you to open the Profile manager by all means open profile menu and setting up new profile. and see what happens. -- Phillip M.
