With the years, I was able to migrate my emails from a PC with
Netscape to Solaris (on Sparc), then from Netscape to Mozilla (on
Solaris), then to SuSE (on a PC) then later on PowerPC. But I have
done so manualy, and sometime with some efforts. I also don't think
it will be a problem, but I don't want to take a chance, or force the
other Mozilla users to take a chance.
We will have to be sure it can be done automaticaly and safely.
Probably the installation program should offer the user the
possibility to keep a backup copy somewhere.

Sure, send me an email when it is done. I am subscribed to
debian-powerpc@lists.debian.org and some other debian mailing lists,
but not debian-devel, so I will not automatically know when it will
become available.
Because the SeaMonkey package dont exist yet, I can't follow it
using the Package Tracking System.
I have another G4 system I use mostly for testing purpose, so I can
install experimental packages with Sid and/or Etch and also try
migrating from Sarge or Woody with some old backup of my mails.
