Hi rgb,
I don't use Seamonkey, so can't speak to that, but Thunderbird has been my email client for many years and I can tell you that you may store the mail wherever you want...it depends on how you set up your profile. For example, I store mine in a folder on my J drive called Thunderbird-mail. You may learn more about it here:

Profiles - Where Thunderbird stores your messages and other user data

Note that the default profile folder is here:

C:\Users\<your Windows login username>\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\

Regards, Joe
ah damn, it's roaming, I thought it was local :(

C:\Users\<your Windows login username>\AppData

there is no appData folder (as a regular user)
is this only for administrator?
