Big Trouble archiving old mails
Hi all, I've just updated from SM 1.1.18 to 2.0 It almost went on just fine (SM crashed when I imported my old profile, but it did import it after all when I re-ran SM) My concern : - I copied 2.8 go of mails from my inbox to an archive local folder. - The size of the copied file is the same but the number of mails that the mailer is able to read in 10 fold lower !!! - I tried to erase the corresponding .msf file, so the mailer recomputed the archive file but can back with exactly the same number of mail (10 fold less that in the original inbox file). An idea, anyone Thank you for your help Matthieu:) ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

It sounds like there's more for me to do than to just think that this happens automatically. What are the steps to do this? Ed When you first install NS 7.2, and run it for the first time, it will look for a profile. If it finds none in the 7.2 profile location, it will look in the Communicator profile location. If it finds a Communicator profile, and it will, it will offer to convert the profile for 7.2's use. All your data, your mail, your bookmarks, etc., will be copied and converted to a format that NS 7.2 can understand. SeaMonkey 1.1.18 can also use this profile. Leave NC 4.5 installed for now. Install 7.2 and run it, allowing it to convert your profile. Open 7.2 and verify that the data is there. Then you transfer this profile to the new machine. Install 7.2 on the new machine, and point it to the profile you have moved. I can point you to directions on how to do this. Once you are sure you no longer need the data in the old NC 4.5 profile, you can uninstall 4.5. Lee I wasn't able to download 7.2 from the releases page. But I did locate a NS 7.1 CD. Is this version O.K.? Ed For this purpose, sure, it will do the same profile conversion that 7.2 will do. So the Win95 machine has a cd drive? Great! Lee Yes, but unfortunately, it doesn't burn. Ed Well, you're right as usual! NS 7.1 is installed and all the mail addresses are there - in spite of the fact that the readme file stated requirements of Win 98 or higher, 64 MB RAM 233 MZ or faster - all of which I do not meet. Thanks, I would have given up at that point. So, is there any better way of transferring the Profiles folder to the laptop than by copying it to a couple of floppy discs, recopying it to a CD-RW disc and installing in the Profiles folder of Seamonkey? Is there a way to determine which Profiles folder applies to NS 7.1? When I open it up, they both look alike. If size is a constraint, could I just copy the Mail folder to a floppy? Ed A lot depends on what you need to transfer. If all you are concerned about is mail, just copying the mail folder would get the data you need transferred. How you proceed depends on how much you need to move. If it is really just the mail, move the mail folder to your new computer. Install SeaMonkey 2.0, and create a new clean profile. Open Mail/News, and create your mail account. Since it was from NC 4.5, I assume there is only one. Don't let it download any mail yet. Close SeaMonkey. In the newly created profile, in the mail subfolder, you should find a subfolder named for the pop server of the account you just created. In the Mail folder of the old machine, you should find a subfolder with the same name. Replace the newly created subfolder with the old one, that should transfer all your mail. The addressbooks are in the root of your old profile folder. Any file with a .mab extension in an address book. Copy them, and paste them into the new profile folder. Open SeaMonkey and see if your mail and address books are there. Lee ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

It sounds like there's more for me to do than to just think that this happens automatically. What are the steps to do this? Ed When you first install NS 7.2, and run it for the first time, it will look for a profile. If it finds none in the 7.2 profile location, it will look in the Communicator profile location. If it finds a Communicator profile, and it will, it will offer to convert the profile for 7.2's use. All your data, your mail, your bookmarks, etc., will be copied and converted to a format that NS 7.2 can understand. SeaMonkey 1.1.18 can also use this profile. Leave NC 4.5 installed for now. Install 7.2 and run it, allowing it to convert your profile. Open 7.2 and verify that the data is there. Then you transfer this profile to the new machine. Install 7.2 on the new machine, and point it to the profile you have moved. I can point you to directions on how to do this. Once you are sure you no longer need the data in the old NC 4.5 profile, you can uninstall 4.5. Lee I wasn't able to download 7.2 from the releases page. But I did locate a NS 7.1 CD. Is this version O.K.? Ed For this purpose, sure, it will do the same profile conversion that 7.2 will do. So the Win95 machine has a cd drive? Great! Lee Yes, but unfortunately, it doesn't burn. Ed Well, you're right as usual! NS 7.1 is installed and all the mail addresses are there - in spite of the fact that the readme file stated requirements of Win 98 or higher, 64 MB RAM 233 MZ or faster - all of which I do not meet. Thanks, I would have given up at that point. So, is there any better way of transferring the Profiles folder to the laptop than by copying it to a couple of floppy discs, recopying it to a CD-RW disc and installing in the Profiles folder of Seamonkey? Is there a way to determine which Profiles folder applies to NS 7.1? When I open it up, they both look alike. If size is a constraint, could I just copy the Mail folder to a floppy? Ed A lot depends on what you need to transfer. If all you are concerned about is mail, just copying the mail folder would get the data you need transferred. How you proceed depends on how much you need to move. If it is really just the mail, move the mail folder to your new computer. Install SeaMonkey 2.0, and create a new clean profile. Open Mail/News, and create your mail account. Since it was from NC 4.5, I assume there is only one. Don't let it download any mail yet. Close SeaMonkey. In the newly created profile, in the mail subfolder, you should find a subfolder named for the pop server of the account you just created. In the Mail folder of the old machine, you should find a subfolder with the same name. Replace the newly created subfolder with the old one, that should transfer all your mail. The addressbooks are in the root of your old profile folder. Any file with a .mab extension in an address book. Copy them, and paste them into the new profile folder. Open SeaMonkey and see if your mail and address books are there. Lee Thanks Lee. I've already been using Seamonkey 2.0 on the laptop and have mail folders. What I hoped to do was to merge the two mail files and since there is no address book, use the old one. What would be the steps to accomplish this?

So I started the Profile Manager to create a profile, and pointed it to the old 1.1.18 folder that I thought I had migrated.

I now know that the weird tailing part is caused by special forbidden characters like slashes and dashes. But I absolutely need to recover is the original name of the folders. The first example above seems to indicate that mailer can, somehow, translate the name This is my 13b60fb3 into This is my #1 folder (because it is shown as it).

The only times I have used Wordpad to edit the file was when I wanted to change the domain names in a large number of bookmarks. Those bookmarks all pointed to pages in the mirror of a very large archive. When that mirror began to have problems, I switched to using a different mirror. That required making the same change to about 250 bookmarks, which was quite easy with Wordpad. The major deficiency in Bookmark Manager for editing is that a search for a particular bookmark results in a new window. A number of editing operations are disabled in that window. The search is useless for editing in the main Bookmark Manager window since it does not indicate where in 1,200 bookmarks the found entry is located. These are very old bug reports. -- David E.

It sounds like there's more for me to do than to just think that this happens automatically. What are the steps to do this? Ed When you first install NS 7.2, and run it for the first time, it will look for a profile. If it finds none in the 7.2 profile location, it will look in the Communicator profile location. If it finds a Communicator profile, and it will, it will offer to convert the profile for 7.2's use. All your data, your mail, your bookmarks, etc., will be copied and converted to a format that NS 7.2 can understand. SeaMonkey 1.1.18 can also use this profile. Leave NC 4.5 installed for now. Install 7.2 and run it, allowing it to convert your profile. Open 7.2 and verify that the data is there. Then you transfer this profile to the new machine. Install 7.2 on the new machine, and point it to the profile you have moved. I can point you to directions on how to do this. Once you are sure you no longer need the data in the old NC 4.5 profile, you can uninstall 4.5. Lee I wasn't able to download 7.2 from the releases page. But I did locate a NS 7.1 CD. Is this version O.K.? Ed For this purpose, sure, it will do the same profile conversion that 7.2 will do. So the Win95 machine has a cd drive? Great! Lee Yes, but unfortunately, it doesn't burn. Ed Well, you're right as usual! NS 7.1 is installed and all the mail addresses are there - in spite of the fact that the readme file stated requirements of Win 98 or higher, 64 MB RAM 233 MZ or faster - all of which I do not meet. Thanks, I would have given up at that point. So, is there any better way of transferring the Profiles folder to the laptop than by copying it to a couple of floppy discs, recopying it to a CD-RW disc and installing in the Profiles folder of Seamonkey? Is there a way to determine which Profiles folder applies to NS 7.1? When I open it up, they both look alike. If size is a constraint, could I just copy the Mail folder to a floppy? Ed A lot depends on what you need to transfer. If all you are concerned about is mail, just copying the mail folder would get the data you need transferred. How you proceed depends on how much you need to move. If it is really just the mail, move the mail folder to your new computer. Install SeaMonkey 2.0, and create a new clean profile. Open Mail/News, and create your mail account. Since it was from NC 4.5, I assume there is only one. Don't let it download any mail yet. Close SeaMonkey. In the newly created profile, in the mail subfolder, you should find a subfolder named for the pop server of the account you just created. In the Mail folder of the old machine, you should find a subfolder with the same name. Replace the newly created subfolder with the old one, that should transfer all your mail. The addressbooks are in the root of your old profile folder. Any file with a .mab extension in an address book. Copy them, and paste them into the new profile folder. Open SeaMonkey and see if your mail and address books are there. Lee Thanks Lee. I've already been using Seamonkey 2.0 on the laptop and have mail folders. What I hoped to do was to merge the two mail files and since there is no address book, use the old one. What would be the steps to accomplish this? Ed Replace the address book with the abook.mab, and any other mab files in the profile from the old machine. Take the Inbox file from your old profile. rename it OldInbox. Paste it into your SeaMonkey Mail folder, in the subfolder for the account, on the same level with the existing Inbox. Open SeaMonkey Mail/News. You should see your current Inbox with its contents, and a new folder called OldInbox, with the mail transferred from the old machine. You can then sort it as required. Any mail that you may have stored in other folders in the old account can be moved in similar fashion, just make sure you don't duplicate names, in order to avoid overwriting files and lising mail.

This version of McAfee, Total Protection 2010, was released to the public before SeaMonkey 2.0. SM 2.0 is the new one in the pool (relatively), so to speak. Generally, it's up to the last changer to investigate, find any problems on their side, or determine the problem is not theirs, Yes, I confirm that turning off McAfee SiteAdvisor makes the problem go away for me also. But that doesn't mean its McAfee's fault. Personally I don't care whose fault it is. Fault is not the issue, determining what caused the problem is. Once that's established, the ball will be in whoever's court. They (whoever it turns out to be) must then decide how to respond and give a priority to that response. A MozillaZine Forums post, http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=40t=1558785start=15 , contains an interesting comment: Look, the problem is with Seamonkey when you try to copy text out of it. Every other browser allows copy without problem. I am having the same issue. It happened as soon as my Seamonkey 2.0 beta upgraded itself to the release version. Also, copy was working fine in the 2.0 beta and RC2. Same firewall, same antivirus, the only thing that changed was Seamonkey. Paste from non-Seamonkey apps into Seamonkey works fine for me. So, this poster claims that copy--paste worked fine in SeaMonkey 2.0 right up until the time it went GA (IBM talk meaning Generally Available), released for production, final edition, etc. This sounds like key info for determining the cause.
