I noticed that when I went to look at old messages all were gone from the inbox. Mozilla seemed to think that this was the 1st time it had run.

I noticed that there were 2 users: stephen on mail.limo.net and local, which has
no inbox. I do not know when or how stephen on ... was added. (I didn't do it).
My XP machine on the same network has only a local folder (with an inbox that
seems to have all the messages it should). I use both my desktop 98 and my
laptop xp to receive messages. Is there anyplace I can look for these messages?
All my other locations (sent, trash, etc) are empty as well, including all the
local folders. When I installed this program I imported files from netscape and
these are gone as well (but still in the netscape programs folders, fortunately.
Any suggestions.
