I bet I know exactly what that is. There's a feature new to Seamonkey that lets you put all your mail into one inbox in Local Folders. When you go to set up an account, you need to uncheck the box that says "Use Global Inbox". All seems to work if I uncheck that box.
The feature has been in Thunderbird, but I think that I got caught into something. But, there was nothing into Local folders. I found later that, since I keep mail on server for 11 days, or until mail is sent to trash, there was nothing there. I have no idea how this Global Inbox works, but it is insane to use it with 11 active accounts. The entire thing was very perplexing because I copied my old (and renamed) Inbox to the same account, and I could not see the renamed folder. Where is it?
Anyway, I removed the account, and that's when I noticed global Inbox prompt (it should never be default). And, the account showed up ok. But, Local folders must have, still been default, until I added another account, and selected default. So, your diagnosis was correct. So, Donzilla is working ok. It is running at over 56 MB memory usage.
Now, I will have to cut down the number of Search engines.
