I hope all you admins and advanced users will again accept my strong thanks for superb siduction.

The old hdd went wonky. An advanced user local friend couldn't figure out why.

So I built a new rig which is working primo.

I've moved the old hdd to the new rig, and moved my music and Icedove email address directory over.
A collection of text files moved over will complete the job.

My advanced user friend couldn't find how to migrate Icedove email from the old hdd.

Will someone kindly offer a tip ? Where do I find the magic button?

And before I forget: heartfelt best wishes to all for abundant joy and peace (and order) at Christmas.

Ok, you can't code, but you still might be able to write a bug report for Debian's sake
