Did you follow these instructions?

If the app isn't dragged to the Applications folder, it will restart without remembering the previous setup.

I did the same process with 5 other apps at the same time. THEY all went along just fine by re-titling from the ;apps' folder in the finder (after the re-start). ... Clearer? MY problems are two: #1 that "mail" (formerly Thunderbird) opens but does not recognize me AND #2 TB seems to have LOST my folders and mail.
