Re: How to Reorder Email, Newsgroup Accounts in SM

Write done the current order of the accounts displayed. Look at the line: user_pref(...); This is the order that the accounts appear, and write those numbers in from of each account name in the list you made. then reorder them as desired in the list. Got to the line again and reorder the account names so they are in the order you wish displayed. user_pref(...); Remember that the Account # that relates to Local Folders will always display last, no matter what order it is put in the list. *** Notes to the developers: 1. Please change numbers from 1,2, etc. to 01, 02, etc. so that 10 appears in order after 09 and not after 01. 2. Please rename Local folders to Account00 so they will always get the same number, making it obvious as to what account it is. 3. Could you please make a gui to change the order and to reorder the id#'s, etc., so it can be cleaned up easily? 4. Could you also rename the pop folders like I already mentioned? A. instead of pop.yahoo.com, pop.yahoo-1.com etc. to username.yahoo. The .com, .net, etc. are not needed and if there is a .com and .net associated with the same domain name then simply make the exception and call it usename.yahooocom or username.yahoocom. These would be rare. for .co.uk and .co.ca etc. it would be the same, username.yahoouk, or username.yahooca. No more confusion over which folder is which and require a knowledge of needing to look it up and where. Moving one user to a new computer is now very simple rather than transferring all the mail and removing all the other accounts such as moving to college and want all the stuff form that kids account but not the others. I wish I know this before trying to move to SM2. That was a mess since I was forced to delete all of the accounts and put them back in. I also had to copy email that didn't transfer and since SM2 weirdly is different, they at first wound up in the wrong folders. Suggestion 4 will solve this one. Thanks guys. P.S. A drag and drop method for reordering of the accounts would also be awesome.

How do I get urls and passwords imported from SM1.x to SM2 to work?
Still need to be able to have the browser acknowledge the imported urls and passwords to actually attempt to work in SM2. I looked at the Password Manager and at least most of them seemed to have transfered but the prompt doesn't appear to work so I can't use them. I still have to use SM1.1.8 until this is fixed since I have many many sites with passwords stored in every strange manner that these site managers can think of so I can never remember them even if I tried.

Feedback to Seamonkey developers - SM 2.0 high CPU resource consumption bursts
I understand that the core Seamonkey development team reads a lot of the postings on this newsgroup, so I wanted to take this opportunity to post some feedback on a particular issue regarding the newly released Seamonkey 2.0 suite that has otherwise made what has been a excellent refinement of recent Seamonkey releases, into something that has been difficult and frustrating to use, especially when these issues did not occur at all whatsoever with all past versions of Seamonkey, Mozilla suite and even as far back as Netscape 6 and 7. SEAMONKEY 2.0 ISSUE SUMMARY - In short, SM 2.0 for some reason consumes large bursts of CPU power, repeating at fairly frequent intervals (anywhere from once every half a minute to once every few minutes), and these events appears to bring the Seamonkey application thread to its knees, resulting in frequent temporary stalling, freezing and pausing of the application for long periods, even when running on a modern powerful high clock speed multi-core CPU system that capably handles just about any other demanding application I could throw at it. HARDWARE / OS OVERVIEW - I have been running SM 2.0 on (as I have with SM 1.X for many months) - a high performance major brand name motherboard with a multi-core (more than 2 cores) CPU set at a clock speed of 3.0 GHz, 2 GB of RAM, Windows XP SP-3 in a highly optimized configuration and environment, and more than ample Windows swap file size. Normally, this CPU is running in Window's energy efficient power mode and the AMD Cool and Quiet CPU drivers which dynamically throttle CPU clock speed as needed. I consider myself a power user. OBSERVATIONS / SYMPTOMS I have used SM 2.0 since the day of its official release, and while I have had no real issues whatsoever setting up SM 2.0 and manually migrating all my existing preferences, mail and newsgroup files and other browser / address book files, shortly after using SM 2.0 I discovered that the entire application suite FREQUENTLY STALLS / PAUSES even when I perform the simplest tasks, which may include: * Flipping through different windows / components of the suite, including browser window, mail window, mail composition window, address book, etc * Simple typing in a mail composition window * Copying and pasting text blocks (e.g. mail composition / editing) * Highlighting and deleted text blocks (e.g. mail composition / editing) * Scrolling through a web page already fully loaded or text in a mail composition window, using mouse wheel * Retarded response when clicking on links * Multi-media playback within browser window (e.g. Flash FLV video) I would like to emphasize that these stalling symptoms above occur when such tasks are either performed or are performed during the reoccuring stalling period of the application suite. Furthermore, I have absolutely NOT experienced ANY of these problems for all the years I have used Netscape 6, 7, the Mozilla suite and all Seamonkey 1.X releases. This issue occurs even when the operating system has just been freshly rebooted AND SM 2.0 is the ONLY application running. FURTHER INVESTIGATION I decided to investigate this stalling issue further and began to use SM 2.0 while running the AMD Power Monitor, which graphically displays all CPU core utilization percentage on a moment to moment basis within a small window. Meanwhile, I kept SM 2.0 as the ONLY running application on the system to ensure that it was the only major source of system load. Normally, with the Windows-XP power mode set to a power efficient mode (i.e. minimal power management mode), all cores are running at an idle speed of about 800 MHz (with a maximum core speed of 3 GHz when the load requires it). With virtually all of the applications I run on my system, including multimedia players, most of the time all cores are at a relaxed 800 MHz and occasionally one or two cores may be ramping up to 1.6 GHz, and very infrequently and very briefly one of the cores may ramp up to 3 GHz. Under this energy efficient mode, the system handles a heavily loaded SM 1.X release just fine with a high number of browser tabs loaded with heavy pages, multimedia playing on one or more tabs and the mail window running as well. But with SM 2.0, the stalling occurs frequently. I decided to set the Windows-XP power mode to ALWAYS ON mode so that all CPU cores would run at an idle clock speed of 3 GHz. Interesingly, in this mode, the stalling symptom of SM 2.0 was reduced somewhat. However, it was STILL NOT completely eliminated, and furthermore, observation of the AMD power monitor utility also indicates that one or more CPU cores frequently shows a very high core load percentage (even when running at a full 3.0 GHz core speed) that coincides with WHENEVER SM 2.0 stalls. This is particularly noticable (but not exclusively limited to) during playback of vidoes such as Flash FLV within the Flash plug-in inside a SM 2.0 browser tab / window, where, during stalling, the video frame rate would frequently

SM 2.0 Fontsmoothing issue on Mac OS X in mailnews
Hi, Since the first release of the SM 2 aplha i recognized that in the mailnews part (folder pane and header pane) the font smoothing is so strong, that it is really hard to see any difference between read an unread threads (see the screenshots in the links below)! When you compare the SM 1 screenshot with the one from SM 2 side by side you will see what i´m complaining about. I was told then in the german mozilla groups that the antialiasing of the Mac OS X may be the reason for that behavior and i really hoped this would be better or fixed in the final release, it isn´t still and is the one and only reason to me for staying at SM version 1. http://www.wolfswelt.at/SM1.png http://www.wolfswelt.at/SM2.png In some other threads i saw screenshots of the mail/news panes from windows and linux users and they look quite clear to me. Disabling the AA in Mac OS completely is no solution (font display is more worse than before) so it is set to weak wich is the lowest given setting. A few experiments (after getting tips) in a userchrome.css with different fonts and styles doesn´t fix this problem too so this here is my last hope. Can anyone point me to a working solution? How can i get back this clear and crispy message display of SM version 1? thanks in advance and best regards Wolfgang ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Options: 5a/ For SeaMonkey-1.x.x, Enter the new string-value NOT Firefox/3.0, without the inverted-commas, and click OK. 5b/ For SeaMonkey-2.x.x, Enter the new string-value NOT Firefox/3.5.3, without the inverted-commas, and click OK. 6/ Close and restart SeaMonkey(or View/Reload), and then try to open the site you could not use. I have the 'not Firefox' string blanked out and put in the 'firefox' one, but that does not get me the time changing ability. What I really don't understand is why this page worked fine in 1.1.18 but won't work in 2.0. On a related note, I was told that blanking out a string in about:config would delete it when SM was closed and i believe this worked in 1.1.18, but it's not happening with 2.0. A delete option here would sure be handy. Thanks for your help with this. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Re: [OSX Tiger] Migration from 1.1.18 - 2.0: GREAT - some observations
Gabriele wrote: /snip/ I really don't understand the discussions I read about modal windows, and download manager; are these a Windows-only things ? On OSX I found everything as before. For exmaple, when you click on SeaMonkeyAbout SeaMonkey, you get either a new tab or a new full browser window with the about information. In 1.1.x you used to be able to set a pref in about:config to get a smaller window similar to what you get when you click FirefoxAbout Mozilla Firefox. If you have never modified that pref, SM2 will seem just like SM1.1 in that regard. Now, I have some observations: 1) At 1st start-up after installation, there was a window asking for master password, but the field didn't accept any input; I restarted SM, and now it works. Did you have a Mater Password set in 1.1.x before upgrading to 2.0? If so, is it behaving correctly now? 2) What did the developers change in SM, that now every 1st outgoing connection to standard HTTP and SSL ports makes my firewall asking for permission? It's the same odd behaviour as FireFox 3.5! I mean: I open SM 2, write an URL, and Little Snitch asks seamonkey-bin wants to connect to www... TCP port 80. Deny or Allow?! I never saw that alert with previous versions of SM, nor with Safari, but only with FireFox and now SM 2. I've only been using the uilt in firewall for Snow Leopard, so I don't know. No browser connections have been stopped, though it asks about other programs that access. Once I allow it permanently, it doesn't ask anymore. Of course, that was intorduced in Leopard, so no such thing for Tiger. 3) It seems to me the text size in web sites is larger than before. Well, I hadn't notivrd that, but rendering will be a little different, generally better. You could check SeaMonkeyPreferencesAppearance, and see if you have a minimum font size set. If not, I would just leave it alone. 4) In Mail Messages: why the View Headers only has All, Normal and no more extended, None options? I believe the other options were added by the Mnenhy extension, which has not been updated for use with 2.0 as far as I know. Thank you for adding keyboard-shortcuts to some News commands :) 5) I see the little rainbow wheel when writing a long message like this one. Its probably when SM is auto saving the post, which it does every five minutes. If you want a longer interval between saves, you can set it in SeaMonkeyPreferencesMail NewsgroupsComposition, or disable it entirely if you want. Its not happening here, but I am running a more powerful system the you. 6) WHY the X button for closing tab is now at the right of the mail window only, and not in every tab as before? I have to move the mouse a lot more now! It was more easier before. If you have a mouse with scroll wheel, try middle clicking on the tab you want to close. If you have a one button mouse, Control +click, then click Close Tab. I'm a little surprised the Command Click doesn't work. However, I love my Mighty Mouse. ;) Ok, I'll do rendering tests another time, I can say that I'm satisfied with the new SM 2.0, just fix the spinning wheel please! The other thing that has been causing my install to freeze, and show the beachball of Death, is the updating of RSS feeds. The obvious workaround is to disable automatic checking in the RSS accounts, but that is kind of a pain.

Lee To Leonidas: For once a serious question. Why did they remove the Quick Launch, in either Browser? What is the benefit of doing so? :-\ Well, it only existed in Windows anyhow, and was a holdover from Netscape days, when they were trying to get the browser to open up as fast as IE. The value of it was debatable. I remember playing around with it a long time ago. While it did cause the initial opening of the program to speed up, subsequent closings and reopening were the same whether Quicklaunch was enabled or not. The negative side was that part of Netscape/Mozilla Suite was open and running at all times, taking up system resources for no good reason. It also caused quite a bit of trouble for anyone who needed to do a modification within their program files, such as a user.js mod, they would forget that if Quick Launch was running, Netscape/Mozilla was not really closed, thus negating their modification. I ended up just suggesting that people disable Quick Launch and forget about it, since it was more trouble then it was worth. The only reason it was still in 1.1.x was that it was still based on the very outdated code. With all the reports about how much faster SM 2.0 is loading for people, I would suspect there really is no need for it anyway. By the way, i don't know if you are on the newsgroup or the mailing list, but every time you reply to me your reply shows in the group, *and* I get a private email copy. This is unnecessary, and clogs up my mailbox for no good purpose. Can you please not do that anymore?

ISP passowrd log-on problems

On this site with SM1,8, all the account names would open up a window that I could choose between. On another site, no choice is offered. When I type the first letter of an account, any account with that first letter is offered for my choice. In SM1.8, when I accessed that site, all the options appeared with prompting.

However, I seem to recall that in SM 1.X versions, when pasting a URL with spaces or other special characters into the SM mail composition window, an automatic conversation process would take place whereby the pasted URL in the mail composition would then contain the necessary escape characters (e.g. for the space character, it would become %20 in the e-mail). Can someone confirm whether the automatic escape character conversion DOES INDEED take place in SM 1.X versions but now does NOT take place in SM 2.0's mail composition window or when the e-mail is saved / sent? In this case, I had to re-edit the saved draft to manually replace the space characters in the pasted URL into their correct escape character equivalents.

Sea Monkey 2.0 spoofing - Again
Hello, I am still not getting the File, Open. toolbox tabs when I download and run Sea Monkey 2.0. However, 1.1.18 has been running fine. I have tried the following without any success.. Sea Monkey 2.0 spoofing 1) Navigator Window - about:config 2) Click thru warning 3) Right Click on body text 4) Click on New followed by String 5) 1st Box = general.useragent.extra.spoof 6) 2nd Box= NOT Firefox/3.5.4 7) That's it I have installed Firefox 3.5.4 and IE8 and using Windows XP. Help.. Do I need to change to another Firefox version? Delete 1.1.18 entirely before downloading 2.0. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I can only save the original to the default file download location. This is not what I was expecting from SM 2.0 as it has been and, I thought, is supposed to be a Suite with all the bells and whistles. PLEASE put these functions back to allow those of us who use Seamonkey as a development tool to continue to do so. I do appreciate and thank all involved for the effort that goes into the development of this product but I do not understand the 'dumbing down' of the product. It isn't gone. I right clicked on an image link, and had both Save Image As, and Save Link Target As, as options. I clicked on a link to a pdf, and had both Save Link target As and Save Page As for options. The File menu also has Save Page As for an option. Can you go into a little more detail on your problem, maybe with a couple of examples of where it is not working for you? Lee Problem Resolved... I should have known better than to think the Save As functions had been eliminated. I created a new profile and low and behold there they all were. Now I wonder why when doing a migration from SM 1.1.18 the Save As functions are missing from all menus? Guess I will find out as I manually rebuild my old profiles.

In Vista Home Basic 64 bit if I click on documents it shows the profile at desktop\user\app data\roaming\mozilla\seamonkey\profiles.
