I have a .thunderbird email client folder on a Fedora 7 x86_64 system
that I need to move to a Fedora 10 x86 system. It occurs to me that if I
move this, and then start thunderbird on the new system, I might have
trouble because of 64-bit code. Also trouble with updating Enigmail. I
want to be sure I can sign and encrypt email messages. Am I better off
just moving
.thunderbird/[salt].default/Mail/*
.thunderbird/[salt].default/abook.mab
What file(s) store the email account information?
Or, to make a long story short, can I just tar up all of .thunderbird
and not worry about conflicts on the 32-bit system?
