JAS I also got the impression from some earlier discussion that copying IS one way of doing a migration, although it is not clear that it is the same or different from using the migration wizard. In fact, I just did an in-place migration of a 10GB+ profile (almost all mail files of course) by creating a new SM 2 profile and then totally replacing it with the old profile and starting SM 2. This seemed to do almost everything necessary except that reading News wouldn't work, so I just deleted all the News .msf files and let it re-create them. Clearly this isn't the supported way of doing a migration but does work, mostly. Obviously some thought and programming went into the case of SM2 wakes up and finds it has SM 1 files.

Re: Have I Migrated My Profile??
JAS wrote: What exactly is the difference in migration and merely coping? JAS Well that's exactly my question. From the stuff I've read online, the sm 2 profile and file structures are different from those in sm 1.1.18, but that sm 2 can use the 1.1.18 profile and files sorta/kinda/maybe. I read that you are better off migrating (their term, not mine) to sm 2. I just want to know, in simple terms, how I can look in d:\data\seamonkey\users\username where all the mail, newsgroups, bookmarks, addy book etc are, and tell whether they are in native sm 2 format or are still in 1.1.18 format.
