I basically down graded to Seamonkey 1.1.18 from Seamonkey 2.6 because
of two many mail errors. I would glick on an e-mail and it would either
be another e-mail message or it did not make any sense. I actually tried
to use Thunderbird but could not move my e-mails as I had no idea where
they are stored in 2.6, at least I know where they are stored in 1.1.18.

Howard, in your SM 2.6, have a look at Edit->Mail & Newsgroup Account
Settings, select "Server Settings" for your e-mail account and, on the
right hand side of that screen, at bottom, you should see "Local
directory" listed.
This is where your email account is stored. If you close SM and then use
your Windows Explorer or "My Computer" to go to this location, you
should see folders for your Mail accounts and for your Local Folders.
Have a look in your mail account folder and you should see lots of
folders including "inbox" and "inbox.msf".
The "inbox" folder contains all your inbound e-mails, and the
"*inbox.msf*" folder is an index of your inbox, but the *inbox.msf* is
now broken, so what you now need to do is delete the "*inbox.msf*" file,
and then restart SeaMonkey, select the e-mail account and a new
*inbox.msf* file will be created and, hopefully, you will now be able to
select and e-mail and the correct e-mail will be displayed.
Report back.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and yours, and may 2012 be
better than 2011.
