Is there anyone who has had any experience moving GMail 'Sent' messages
from GMail's WebMail 'Sent' folder to Seamonkey's e-mail client?

I understood that POP only allows downloads from one's WebMail 'Inbox'.
Accordingly, I used the GMail WebMail feature to mark some of the
messages I want to transfer for movement to my local PCs Seamonkey
'Inbox' to my GMail's WebMail 'Inbox'.

After I did this, I asked SeaMonkey to download my GMail 'inbox' from
its usual location on GMail's WebMail.  Nothing happened and the moved
e-mail simply remained in my GMail WebMail 'Inbox'.  Accordingly, I must
have dome something stupid.

Can anyone help me sort how to download the e-mails I am trying to
transfer?  Thanks, in advance for any and all comments, help, or
suggestions.

Gmail won't allow you to download mail to a POP client unless you go into its settings and allow that feature (it's disabled by default).

Here's how to enable POP in Gmail:

1. Sign in to Gmail.
2. Click the gear in the top right.
3. Select "Settings."
4. Click "Forwarding and POP/IMAP."
5. Select "Enable POP for all mail" or "Enable POP for mail that arrives from now on." 6. Choose what to do with your messages after your POP client or device receives them.
7. Click "Save Changes."

AFAIK once you have the messages in your local mail client you can't send them back to any webmail, including Gmail.
