Verify Links in editor

Can Sea Monkey's web editor verify all links before upload? Also can the 
FTP app select directories on the FTP server in a window to upload too?

Email trouble with v2.0.3 - maybe

2010-02-20 Thread robert . gault
I've been having a problem sending email to a verizon.net address known to be 
good. This morning, 5 to 10 attempts produced a popup message saying the 
addressee was not a customer and to check the address.
I tried rebooting the computer and initiated dial-up several times to no effect. 
The last test I made was sending email to another address which was successful. 
Immediately after that I was able to send email to the problem address.


Is this a known bug of some type with Seamonkey 2.0.3? I don't see how it can be 
a bug somewhere else given the sequence of events but it doesn't make much sense.

Don't use use nightlies if you are a user, as there is a (beta) release 
that works.



I think I recall that the latest release version would not install in SM
2.x.


Just use Lightning 1.0 Beta 1 from addons.mozilla.org as that one works

Some Web sites block browsers from remembering passwords.  There was a
capability using a pair of preference variables to override that block
in many -- but not all -- cases.

The capability was removed when the Password Manager was rewritten for
Firefox.  See bug #425145 at
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=425145.  The sentiment
among developers appears inclinde not to fix this.

The best workaround that I found is at
http://cybernetnews.com/firefox-remember-passwords/.  This actually
works for sites where even the old capability did not work.  The problem
is that you must manually tweak the nsLoginManager.js every time you
update SeaMonkey.

Note that the Activate Autocomplete extension should be avoided.  See
bug #529091 athttps://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=529091.

Thanks for the ideas. I have the same profile working on another 
computer and the remember feature works okay there. Before I try your 
workarounds, I'm going to see if there is any difference between the 
prefs.js between the two computers which would let it work on one 
computer but not the other.

worked-out, I
think there's a settings under preferences, advanced for Seamonkey not

I'm afraid you're wrong there.

The problem the OP posted was one of a problem profile migration. That
is not a flaw in the program itself, but in the migration process. That
is not going to improve. Anyone who is waiting for an improved migration
tool is going to have a long wait. In fact, the profile migration will
probably go away entirely, though that will be a while.

The real answer is to migrate the data manually. It may be a pain but
once its done its done, and you willbe positioned to move on.

Yes, we all hope that there will be many improvements to the suite, but
an improved migration tool, probably not.

Lee


Okay, that worked. Thank you very much.

For those who might Google this in the future, I copied the CONTENTS of
1.1.18's *.slt folder (not the folder itself, but from within the
folder) to the clipboard, made a backup copy of 2.03's as-installed
*.default folder (just in case) and then deleted the contents of that
folder. I then Pasted the copied contents of 1.1.18's *.slt into 2.03's
new *.default folder. That folder, containing 2.03's config files, is in
the new 2.03-created Seamonkey folder visible from:

C:\Documents and Settings\[myname]\Application Data\Mozilla

Et voila.


This is the best recipe to have a lot of garbled and useless data even
in your future, and that's why migration selectively copies only the
really needed data and what can safely be migrated without disturbing
your existence.

From what I've seen, yEnc isn't particularly well supported...or 
standardized.


I subscribe to several 3D artists binary groups and sometimes I can see 
yEnc posts with SM and sometimes I can't - I generally chalk this up to 
some server in the chain not knowing what to do with yEnc, or a poster 
switching to a newer version of yEnc that a server (or client) hasn't 
kept up with.  I've seen that on several occasions when I've been able 
to see someones posts and suddenly can't - the poster then usually comes 
back and states that he has upgraded or switched versions.


...what I'd rather see is SM being able to support multi-threaded 
images; ones which are too large and are automatically broken into 
serial posts.  That should be more doable.

GMail does indeed offer both POP3 and IMAP for use in mail clients.

I think that is the misunderstanding. The webmail interface for GMail is

No, I have had to use it once or twice on the road, and clunky it is. But why 
would anyone do that with SM? Using Gmail from the browser interface is just the 
wrong thing to do. :-(


The only reason I can use GMail is to use it in SeaMonkey Mail/News as 
an IMAP account.  There it behaves just like any other IMAP account.


The POP version also behaves like any other POP account.

I think we are comaring the Web interface with the Mail client interface.

Transfer only the selected data you really needed, such as your email 
files, bookmarks, cookies, etc.


SeaMonkey 2.0 ans sm 1.1 are very, very different programs. By copying 
over the entire profile, you are moving all kinds of data that does not 
apply to SM 2, and can cause problems.  So far you seem to be lucky, but 
something may yet happen.  For your sake, I hope not. The best case is 
there a lot of stuff in the profile that is just taking up space. The 
worst case it that it might cause corruption in the future.


I was lucky in that all the profiles I transferred came through with no 
issues. Had I had a problem, I would have created a new, clean profile 
in SM 2, opened Mail/News, and recreated my mail accounts in the order I 
had them in SM 1.1.18.  T would then close SeaMonkey, and move across 
the appropriate subfolders from the old profile to the new.  After 
openinf SM and verifying that the data is there, I would have closed SM 
and moved bookmarks, passwords and cookies.  For my use, that is all I 
need.  Any extensions or themes need to be reinstalled anyway.

2010-02-20 Thread Monica
I have been looking in a couple of mail folders in my Profile using a 
text editor, and I see a lot of (text) content in there even though the 
folders are empty when I check them in the SM mail client. How can this be?

Re: small problem with menus

Tom S.:

In the SeaMonkey 2 pull-down menus, why are there pipe symbols | shown 
on menu items where previously in SM1 there were ellipses ...  
showing?  Also, for any menu listing that may be too long, such as in a 
newsgroup listing, a | appears where it was truncated. 

Probably the same issue as in this thread
http://groups.google.com/group/de.comm.software.mozilla.misc/browse_thread/thread/3ce94be922e6bf03/1a44704bbc5d41f4?#1a44704bbc5d41f4

The '...' is a single utf-8 character and needs a suitable font to be
displayed properly.

You need to compact your folders.

Messages deleted in the SM UI are not really deleted, rather they are 
removed from your view, and marked for deletion. Compacting the folders 
accomplishes this deletion.

 Monica,
 Try downloading Malwarebytes (free version), do a full scan, and see
 what it comes up with. You can also install Avast as well, for full time
 protection.

 I hope this helps.

 Glen
 I thought that my F-Secure Internet Security 2010 would be enough.

It is if the results you're getting are good enough for you.

Keep in mind too that you may have a false positive, where your
virus software is reporting what it *thinks* is a virus. Whether
or not there actually is a virus there is a different story.

Perhaps you could try moving the messages from that mail folder
into a temporary mail folder, and see if the virus moves with
the messages. If it does, you can even go as far is moving only
some messages at a time until you determine which one is causing
the problem. Then just delete that message.

Good luck. Sometimes, viruses can be pretty nasty.

Okay, that worked. Thank you very much.

For those who might Google this in the future, I copied the CONTENTS of
1.1.18's *.slt folder (not the folder itself, but from within the
folder) to the clipboard, made a backup copy of 2.03's as-installed
*.default folder (just in case) and then deleted the contents of that
folder. I then Pasted the copied contents of 1.1.18's *.slt into 2.03's
new *.default folder. That folder, containing 2.03's config files,
is in
the new 2.03-created Seamonkey folder visible from:

C:\Documents and Settings\[myname]\Application Data\Mozilla

Et voila.


This is the best recipe to have a lot of garbled and useless data even
in your future, and that's why migration selectively copies only the
really needed data and what can safely be migrated without disturbing
your existence.

Robert Kaiser


As it happens nothing appears to be garbled, and I'm down to tweaking
the small settings. What would you have had me do, after the wizard
failed and nothing else worked except what I described?

Craig


Transfer only the selected data you really needed, such as your email
files, bookmarks, cookies, etc.



SeaMonkey 2.0 ans sm 1.1 are very, very different programs. By copying
over the entire profile, you are moving all kinds of data that does not
apply to SM 2, and can cause problems. So far you seem to be lucky, but
something may yet happen. For your sake, I hope not. The best case is
there a lot of stuff in the profile that is just taking up space. The
worst case it that it might cause corruption in the future.

I was lucky in that all the profiles I transferred came through with no
issues. Had I had a problem, I would have created a new, clean profile
in SM 2, opened Mail/News, and recreated my mail accounts in the order I
had them in SM 1.1.18. T would then close SeaMonkey, and move across the
appropriate subfolders from the old profile to the new. After openinf SM
and verifying that the data is there, I would have closed SM and moved
bookmarks, passwords and cookies. For my use, that is all I need. Any
extensions or themes need to be reinstalled anyway.


Tried as you suggested after a little more creative directory backing 
up. The upshot is, it didn't work, and I don't propose wasting more 
time on it. What I've got works: All accounts, emails, passwords, 
permissions, et al are all in good working order and display and edit 
correctly in their respective manager screens. Perhaps my setup is a 
very simple one.


If anyone has, say, a list of specific files to beware of, or measures 
to take, I'll take another look at it. In the meantime I'll let 
sleeping dogs lie until they stop breathing. In which case there's 
still 1.1.18.


A question for the developers: In the installation there's a target 
field, displaying the default target, with a Browse button beside it. 
WHY is that button there if you already KNOW installing to an 
alternative destination will likely fail?

You can check the e-mail address here.  If it returns good there's a
problem someplace.

Not as far as I can tell. The site promises email validation, but when I 
entered a test address all I got was a list of free online network 
utilities. It was a complete waste of time.

 The '...' is a single utf-8 character and needs a suitable font to be

I'd think computers without a font to display '…' would be rare.  Tom,
did the ellipsis show up for you between the quote marks in my previous

Don't assume that the same font is used for the message pane and the
