How ? I thought Mozilla stuck you with those, after it does the (mandatory ?) migration / conversion from
your existing NS 4.61 setup.

Haven't tried Mozilla mail yet -- I'm still intending to switch to one of the dedicated Mail programs -- but was
curious as to how it may differ from the Mail client in NS 4.61. Some things are apt to have changed there also,
as witness the added trickiness in editing Preference or Bookmark files.

Other Mozilla stuff:
Can someone remind me as to what is the correct procedure for updating a Mozilla version ? Is it that you blow away
everything from the CHROME directory on down, except for Plugins, and install the new version over top of the old ?
(This presumes your Profiles stuff is in a *separate* HOME section, as Steven recommended.)

In NS 4.61, there is an IDENTITY section under Preferences, but this does not seem to be present in Mozilla.
