Making sure that none of them are actually running, you can do direct replacements. They're all found in .mozilla/default/xxxxxxxx.slt/. The Mozilla addressbook is abook.mab and the bookmarks is bookmarks.html. Technically, you could export the contact list and then import that to Thunderbird, but since you just use abook.mab in either there's not much point. Likewise, the bookmarks can be imported through the bookmarks manager in Firebird (this is sort of worthwhile but can cause some problems with the bookmarks toolbar). Mail can also be copied over wholesale - just grab the mbox files Inbox, Sent, Drafts, Templates, etc and copy them over to the equivalent place in the Thunderbird (you'll have to replace the null files that will already be there). Delete the .snm files since it simplifies things when Thunderbird restarts. -- David P James Ottawa, Ontario http://members.rogers.com/dpjames/ There is no art which one government sooner learns of another than that of draining money from the pockets of the people. -Adam Smith, The Wealth of Nations -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
