[ale] seg fault/core dumps re:Mozilla

[William Witt]

If I did, I can't remember.  You may want to try renaming then copying 
files over one at a time (assuming renaming it fixed the seg fault 
problem).  Worst case sinario is that you restore from the renamed 
.mozilla.  For me Firefox shut down every time the print dialog would 
have come up.

Another option would be to upgrade to Firefox (1.5 is what I'm running) 
and Thunderbird.  I think I remember Thunderbird's first run wizard 
having the option to import data from other mail readers.
