Using july 18 commercial build The pref limit_message_size and max_size which corresponds to the 6.0 account settings ui "Limit message download to N kb per message" for POP servers doesn't migrate from 4.x. 1. Open a POP mail profile in 4.x. 2. In 4.x set the download limit on and specify a size. Location of the pref in 4.x ui is: Edit|Preferences|Mail&Newsgroups|Disk Space|"Do not store messages locally that are larger than N kb." 3. Exit 4.x and migrate that profile to 6.0. 4. In 6.0 launch to mail and check the pref setting in both ui and prefs.js. The ui location in 6.0 is Edit|Account Settings|<POP account name>|Server panel|"Limit message download to Nkb per message." Prefs.js lines for 6.0 should be as follows: user_pref("mail.server.server1.limit_message_size", true); user_pref("mail.server.server1.limit_message_size", <number you set>); Result: Pref is not enabled in ui, Nkb limit is at default size. Prefs.js lines for 6.0 are not present.
