Now you can unzip as many versions of SM as you wish and they can all use the same profile. Do not replace an app until you are sure you like the new better than the old.
In theory yes but be aware that you can't use different SeaMonkey versions
with the same profile. And on Windows the installer registers some dlls (for
accessibility and email send from context menu).
I suggest doing a full profile backup and then just installing the new
version. Everything also is calling for trouble especially if you forget to
start with -Profilemanager once.

Just to confirm - doing the manual install from 2.46 to 2.49.4 - all of my
old emails will be migrated to the new version, yes? I'm just a little
gun-shy when I'm asked to confirm that I want to install by "replacing" the
previous version. Thanks!
Forget the "migrate". Get the profile(s) off to a data area. Get the ZIP
file. Unzip to a place of your choice. Create a shortcut with the form
H:\SM250-Win\seamonkey.exe -Profilemanager.
Now when you run the shortcut it will open to profile manager. Select create
a profile, and point to the profile you moved.
