What I would recommend is to first quit TB, remove the new F8-TB profile you have created and copy the F6-TB profile into your home directory. Once TB starts up it should automatically convert/update the necessary data from the old profile and use that information. I've been using the same TB profile since RH9 (Thunderbird 0.1a). Each time I upgraded I left the old profile and it got update with each new version of Thunderbird. Of course I backed up with every new Fedora release but I've never had a major problem. On occasion I had to tweak some settings. -Mauriat -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
