Yes, that's the way it reads in the ini file. Still brings up the old
(now deleted) profile.

Here's the error message: "The file
/C:/Users/Linda/AppData/Roaming/Mozilla/SeaMonkey/Profiles/rtfmbopb.default/bookmarks.html


cannot be found. Please check the location and try again." Maybe the
HTML file is the problem, but it should be out of the picture now that
that profile has been deleted.

About ready to give up.

Err... That's not a profile, that is a home page!  You can change the
settings for that in preferences.


Good pickup David. That is *exactly* what is wrong Larry. You could have
confirmed it with my long laborious steps ;-)

Larry, you have the preference setting "When Mail launches, show the
Start Page in message area" pointing to a file that *no longer* exists!
You can confirm this since you are using Windows with:

WinKey + R and enter

C:\Users\Linda\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\SeaMonkey\Profiles\rtfmbopb.default

and look and there will be no "bookmarks.html" in that folder.


Your options to fix this are:

1) Create a blank text file "bookmarks.html" in the folder.

2) Find from backup the "bookmarks.html" and restore it to that folder

3) "Edit > Preferences Mail & Newsgroups > Mail Start Page" clear the
checkbox (What my setup is, you will just get a page in the area. BTW
same result as #1)

4) "Edit > Preferences Mail & Newsgroups > Mail Start Page" keep it
checked and click the "Restore Default" button and get the standard
builtin start page.



O.K., maybe we're on to something. However, there are a couple of problems:
-- the profile rtfmbobp, default no longer exists, as it was deleted from profile manager. -- we can't even get to preference settings, in that SM never opens to that point. The error message comes first.
Bummer!
