HI aLL : I had 3 computers running netscape 4.79 , Installed the latest nightly
1.6a , Mozilla converted the old profile , imported all the mail . The bug : No
local folders , and without local folders your sent mail is not saved . Added a
phony account , The local folders now appeared  . Deleted the phony account .
Now the mail saves and all is well ... I had to do this on all three computers
.. Ideas ...

Attached patch proposed fixSplinter Review
moving the call to SetPrettyName to after where we've created the local folder
path avoids the local-folder-1 directory problem, which is the cause of this
problem.
