63533 - Multiple .slt subdirectories under User50

Status: VERIFIED WONTFIX

(MailNews Core :: Backend, defect)

Description

[cmorley]

Using Mozilla nightly (december 17).  Unzip into Mozilla directory and run. 
Initially, Mozilla creates a *.slt directory under your account name (why?).  
Delete the User50 directory and run Mozilla again, and it recreates the User50 
directory and also recreates the initial *.slt sub directory and then ANOTHER 
*.slt sub dirctory.  Each time you quit Mozilla and delete the User50 
directory, another *.slt sub directory is created. (I currently have about 10 
of these *.slt sub dirs).  I initially deleted the User50 directory to get rid 
of the *.slt sub directory, only to find Mozilla is creating more each time. I 
was unable to determine where Mozilla is storing these *.slt directory names 
(but it's stored somewhere, because Mozilla upon recreating the User50 
dir, "appends" a new *.slt dir to the old dir list).

I can reproduce this bug with build 2000122320 / Win2k
The .slt direcetorys are created beacause none should know your profile 
location. (See bug 56002)

I can reproduce this bug, if I don´t delete the registry.dat file.
If I delete the registry.dat, Mozilla´s Account Manager coming up after I 
restart mozilla and mozilla don´t create new sub .slt directorys.

This bug is wontfix. (See 58459)
