Description

[Fernando García Gómez, stripTM]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1b1) Gecko/20060710 Firefox/2.0b1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1b1) Gecko/20060710 Firefox/2.0b1

When removing a profile, an obsolete alert is displayed, perhaps inherited from Mozilla Suite, as it displays a message telling that mails stored will be lost, and that can lead into an error.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Firefox with -p param
2. In "Choose user profile" window, select a profile
3. Press "Delete profile" button
4. And an alert displays a text about mail data

Actual Results:  
Deleting a profile will remove the profile from the list of available profiles and cannot be undone. You may also choose to delete the profile data files, including your saved mail, settings, and certificates. This option will delete the folder "%S" and cannot be undone. Would you like to delete the profile data files?

Expected Results:  
Remove "including your saved mail,"

The message presented is more generic. Specifically

"Deleting a profile will remove the profile from the list of available profiles and cannot be undone.
You may also choose to delete the profile data files, including your settings, certificates and other user-related data. This option will delete the folder "C:\Documents and Settings\yo.AD\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\koiwsck3.sound test" and cannot be undone.
Would you like to delete the profile data files?"
