Hmm..I keep running into bug 66018 when trying to verify this.  IE, I can
migrate the server, but get no newsgroups.

do they show up the second time you run mozilla?

if not, mark this bug blocked by the other bug and you'll have to wait for us to
fix that other one to properly verify.

Yeah, I thought about that too, actually they don't show up until the *3rd time*
I launch!  So, we're migrating, but do we have some kind of RDF issue in the
folder pane, then?

3rd time?  cavin mentioned something about that.

when we get some cycles, cavin and I are going to figure out that bug. 
hopefully before beta.

Seth, since we're actually getting the newsgroups, I think I'll go ahead and
verify.  The fact they aren't appearing is another matter, correct?  IE, I don't
have to do anything on the 3rd attempt, they just automagically appear.

verified:

Mac OS 9.1 2001-05-11-09
Windows 2000 2001-05-11-04
Linux RedHat 7.0 2001-05-11-08

We actually do migrate them, but just don't populate the folder pane with them
until the 3rd launch.  I've updated the summary of bug 66018 to reflect the new
behavior.
