It sounds like you are planning on either an upgrade or a clean install
of FC1 on your existing system. I would recommend a clean install.
I've done both, and had better luck with the clean install. With the
clean install you can leave your /home partition as is then Mozilla mail
will be untouched. (assuming you don't run as root.)
