last line of defaults/pref/unix.js: config("menu.help.item_1.url", "http://home.netscape.com/eng/mozilla/5.0/relnote s/unix-5.0.html"); that page is non-exsistant... does this config item even exsist? pref("helpers.global_mime_types_file", "/usr/local/lib/netscape/mime.types"); pref("helpers.global_mailcap_file", "/usr/local/lib/netscape/mailcap"); these should point the the mime.types and mailcap mozilla installs, if it installs any yet. pref("mail.default_fcc", "~/nsmail/Sent"); pref("news.default_fcc", "~/nsmail/Sent"); i dont think those are mozilla's mail dir... see also bug 14352, which calls for update of all.js

removed bogus menu.help.item_1 pref. global.helper prefs look unused, but notice there are global.private prefs also. These might not be used now, but might be used later so ? leaving them there for now. Mail pref bugs should go in separate mailnews bug.

over to sspitzer for look at the two default_fcc prefs (above), we should close this bug after those two prefs have been looked at.

I believe those mail prefs are still needed by the migration code. (see nsMessengerMigrator.cpp) I'll have to debug to make sure, but I think if they user used pop in 4.x, those prefs are used. but on the other hand, if they actually *used* pop, the pref would get replaced with an actual path, so they might not be needed. I'll figure it out, and then either remove the prefs, or leave them in. but I won't do either any time soon, not a high priority.

I believe that the correct default location for global_mime_types_file and global_mailcap_file should be /etc. There is a patch currently being developed for bug #52441 that uses these settings, so it's probably time to fix this.

/etc/mailcap and /etc/mime.types is the default on some linux distributions, yes. On Solaris they are sometimes found in /usr/local/etc/mime.types and /usr/local/etc/mailcap. Not sure about others -- the response on n.p.m.unix when I asked was underwhelming. This should probably be split into two bugs -- one for the mail prefs and one for the helper prefs.

There doesn't seem to be a unix.js any more and the questionable prefs mentioned in this bug have good defaults now. Resolving WFM.
