    Hi Tim, I use Thunderbird and it stores all the stuff in my home 
directory under .thunderbird/. This I was able to move from FC5 back to 
FC4 by just moving the directory just under .thunderbird. It worked real 
well. Now it looks as if I must move back to FC2. I hope I can do that 
as well....
