Running Win98, I'm using Netscape 7 as my browser, which is actually a Mozilla browser. My Mail folder is saved as a subfolder of my Verizon Account folder, which is under Windows/Application Data/Mozilla/Profiles.I want to switch to Firefox, which also is a Mozilla browser, and want to use the same Mail folder, so that I can access all previous mail activity. I also want to retain my present bookmarks and address book.What must I do in order to do this? Also, must I uninstall Netscape? If so, before or after installing Firefox? If I don't have to uninstall Netscape I'd feel more comfortable, in case I can't get Firefox to work.I've downloaded Firefox, which is Firefox Setup 1.5.0.4.exe, but haven't done anything with it yet.Could somebody please give me some guidance here. Thanks to all.

FireFox doesn't handle email, Thunderbird does. To get the emal into thunderbird, check to see where thunderbird is storing it's email, and cut and paste your email there.
