Summary pretty much describes it.
I started mozilla and suddenlly my homepage and bookmarks were gone.
Also, I'd start mail and mozilla would prompt me to a new account dialog.
Browsing my ~/.mozilla dir, it contains a Mail directory and, within this, dirs
for different mail acconunts and within these files for Inbox, Sent, etc...
When I cat Inbox | grep something i can see contents of previously received email.
However, mozilla refuses to read these dirs and files. Always prompts me for a
new accont dialog.
One thing I've noticed: this occured 3 times, now. A common aspect is that this
only occurs shortly (days) after I created message filters. Can't tell if it's
related or not. I didn't try to reproduce the bug (I try to keep my important
messages)
Reproducible: Didn't try
