Issue 107809

confirming, grabbing, targeting

This certainly occurs under Windows Vista and Windows 7.

The common directory is
C:\Users\Andrew\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\SeaMonkey\Profiles\vyeaklls.default 

However this is a variable vyeaklls.default profile folder (letters changed)
The *.mab files are the address books.

"The common directory is
C:\Users\Andrew\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\SeaMonkey\Profiles\vyeaklls.default"

Just to be clear, the profile location can be changed by the user so it could be
anywhere. Mine is in a different path altogether, not on the C: drive.

In the above location, "vyeaklls" is the <salt> and "default" is <user>.

Same issue with OOO320m18 (linux) + SeaMonkey 2.0.6. Path to SeaMonkey is:
~/.mozilla/seamonkey

OOo is picking up the appropriate path for Thunderbird (linux) at:
~/.thunderbird

What file contains the default paths?

oops, wrong script. Grabbing back.

Has anyone even bothered to think about how many users there are for Thunderbird
versus Seamonkey. I would bet that Thunderbird has significantly (i.e. orders of
magnitude) more users than Seamonkey. This bug is a clear WONTFIX as it causes
more damage than good.

PS. In the future, please don't make decisions based solely on personal
preference while ignoring the needs of the majority of users.

fs->peterlairo:
The damage caused by the fix, to my knowledge, is that old Seamonkey profiles
cannot be accessed anymore. The fix, and the issue as a whole, has nothing to do
with Thunderbird at all.

So, I do not know where you have your information from, but to me, it seems to
be plain wrong. But perhaps I just misunderstood your rant ...

Does the fix for Seamonkey break the addressbook data source for some version of
Thunderbird?

old versions of Thunderbird, prior to ... hmm, when did they change the profile
format? TB 2? ... those old versions' profile format will not be recognized anymore.

@peterlairo: Well I'm confused... Thunderbird 3 and SeaMonkey 2 use the exact
same code:

What "more damage than good" are you referring to?

Added note: m97 works for me:

Screenshot of 3.3.0 error

I just installed 3.4 beta and the addressbook works in Seamonkey as before. Sweet :-)

Just wanted to add that 3.4 works for me as well.
