is there a windoze Favorites folder on your system?
did you include the Favorites plugin during the install?
if so, is it enabled when you go to Edit>Preferences>Plugins?

if you're not using IE for anything, you're probably better off using the NS bookmarks plugin with k-meleon than the Favorites... the one in 0.6 is a little buggy, but the version that's being developed for the next release is great.

Email clients:

Lightweight and freeware:
iScribe: http://www.memecode.com/
MailWarrior: http://pages.infinit.net/kaufman/Index.htm

Freeware and a bit heavier:
FoxMail: http://www.allanc.dk/foxmail/

Best client IMHO but not free:

I've been using FoxMail for several months after giving up on MailWarrior.

Don't get me wrong; MW is a great email client if all you're sending and receiving is plain text messages. But in these Outlook and Outlook Express dominated times, it seems more and more messages are being sent in HTML format. FoxMail handles HTML much better than MW ever could, plus FoxMail has a more active development schedule; MW is written by some guy who only updates it when it suits him. However, I must interject that MW is one of the best "tight-code" programs I've ever seen or used.

FoxMail does have some interface inconsistancies and some translation gaffes (it's primary target audience language is Chinese), but it is the best free email client that suits my current email client needs.

Still using Pegasus: http://www.pmail.com -- freeware. It has good html support, and is quite flexible, but it's definitely no lightweight; the download is about 3.5mb. Releases are fairly infrequent, too. Like KM. <g>
