I have just tried to update my thunderbird to version 1.0_2 from 0.7.3 ( from
/usr/ports/mail/thunderbird/) at my FreeBSD 5.2, and it goes ok.. but when I
start thunderbird, my messages that I downloaded earliere do not appear..

My settings, accounts etc. is ok, but already downloaded mails is missing. This
could probably be fix with deleting my profile.. But I have very important
emails that I do not what to loose..

Another thought is that I could export my mails and import then again aften
upgrading, but there must be an easier way.

Is this problem because the upgrading step is to large, I have tried to read
some changelogs without any evidence on this hytophesis..

I Hope you can help me with my problem, I you need more information just let me
know.
