Clicking the Help button in the Offline & Disk Space preferences panel does not
take you to the relevant help section, instead it displays the "Welcome to
Mozilla Help" screen. It appears that when the offline prefs panel where moved
to mail & news in bug 127423, the pref-help.js file was never updated with the
new location.

Steps to reproduce:
Go to Edit -> Preferences -> Mail & Newsgroups -> Offline & Disk Space, and
click on the Help button.

Actual result:
You will see "Welcome to Mozilla Help"

Expected result:
To see help regarding offline preferences.

This is such a wrong way to implement the help button... sigh...

Nit: you should also change the text in the help itself; before:
1. Open the Edit menu and choose Preferences.
2. Click Offline & Disk Space.
After:
2. Under the Mail & Newsgroups category, select Offline & Disk Space. (etc.)
