    I can find .mst files with a search, but no folder name files are
    located in the same folder. I have even created new folders such as
    "Lost" and "LostMail", but no dice in finding them in a search. I have
    found about 4-5 Netscape and Mozilla folders, but none contain files
    named the same as my folders :-( Any chance that the convention has
    changed in Netscape 7.0.2?

    Cheers,

    Brian
