Whatever else was in my old profile doesn't matter as I will create a new one ie spam filter. Is there anything else I have not thought of/missed ie I've thought of the Maildir, the address book, the filters as being the main items.
I'd really appreciate some pointers here as I dislike using GMail or webmail.

Under your home directory, you should have something like this: ~/.mozilla/default/f6rgpr1p.slt. That last directory contains all your settings etc. and you want to copy them to the new drive. It's been a while since I've done this, but IIRC you simply create a new account with the same ID and then copy the files over.
.mozilla is where firefox keeps its settings , thunderbird normally keeps them in .thunderbird. (at least on my machines). However. this should work with thunderbird profiles if you are certain the rest of the original profile is good and you remember to edit .thunderbird/profiles.ini to point to the copied profile structure. Otherwise thunderbird will just create a new profile structure and ignore the copied one. If the original profile is corrupt (and this has happened to me) this can get messy. - -- ============================================================================== I have always wished that my computer would be as easy to use as my telephone.
