more on SeaMonkey

1) In MAC Mail I am able to have a single view of the combined emails
coming into my several accounts, but so far, in SeaMonkey I see all
mail organized under the domain.  That means I get a separate lin
with Emails (Read messages, Compose) , Accounts (View Settings,
Create new) and Advanced (search, manage.....)

Is there any way to have all messages appear together without having
to click each account? I researched and found that you have a
global inbox, but this option ONLY seems available for account
creation.

This doesn't really answer your question as asked, but it's worth looking into since it's good stuff to know anyway:

I have an elaborate system of filters that moves incoming messages to appropriate folders, so for example I can see all my accountant's messages in one place. When a new message lands in a box, the box name is bolded with the number of new messages in parens. So if my accountant's box lights up, I can see at a glance that I have mail from him. In fact, most of my incoming mail is prefiled for me this way, so I hardly have to spend any time in the Inbox.

Where it gets interesting is that you can filter messages from one account into a folder in another account, so in principle you could write a filter that filed all messages arriving in one account to another account's inbox. Or not, your choice.

Now here's the direct answer to your question:

Go to Edit | Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings.

Expand each account, and click "Server Settings."

Near the bottom of that pane, you'll see a section, "Message Storage." Click the "Advanced" button there. You'll get a dialog saying,

When downloading mail for <account name>, use the following folder for new mail:
(•) Inbox for this server's account
(o) Inbox for different account [Choose folder...]

If you select the second option, one of the folders offered is "Global Inbox (Local Folders)." This will route all incoming mail for the account to the Inbox folder under the "Local Folders" account.

By following this procedure for all your mail accounts, you should be able to route all incoming mail to the global inbox.

2)  The order of my folders within each account just seems to have
changed.  Before it was INBOX, followed by drafts, send messages,
etc. Now these appear at the bottom in reverse order.  Must be
something I clicked, but where?  now it has gone back.  But not sure
why or how.

At the top of the folder list, you should see the column heading "Name." Click it to reverse the order. You probably did that by accident, but since it's a toggle, it's easily fixed.

3) Anyway to get the first pane (FOLDER pane) to show larger fonts?

Dunno, I would think that was an OS feature. My Windows expertise won't help you on a Mac.
