First of all, I don't see why anyone would kill a post with such content. The situation with SM regarding incompatible extensions can be summarized as follows: First, there are two (10 ;-)) kind of extensions: Those that declare compatibility with at least some version of SM (let's call them used to work), and those that don't (let's call them unsupported). For extensions that used to work (like QuoteCollapse), you can simply install the Add-on Compatibility Reporter from AMO. It is currently compatible with all SM versions from 2.1 (stable) through 2.4a1 (trunk). This has the added benefit over simply setting the compatibility prefs yourself (which you don't have to remember to set anymore!) that you can let the extension authors know that their versions still work with the SM version you are using. Unsupported extensions however are different. They cannot be installed or enabled in SM at all unless you hack their install.rdf (or someone releases a new, supported version of course). Sometimes that's unfortunate since the author just blindly removed SM support from install.rdf, but it certainly is the safest thing to do as a default. To my knowledge, there is no extension that automatically hacks install.rdf for you (which, in the case of a download/install, would have to happen in between the download and the install!). The system, as outlined above, is part of the Mozilla platform (i.e. shared with Firefox). Consequently, any change to it needs to be made to the platform code, which is under Firefox development ruling. I'd assume that any request regarding install.rdf hacking (even pref-guarded) would be turned down, so I wouldn't bother trying. Currently there is a compatibility check which can be disabled, but setting it doesn't disable compatibility checking! That's kind of a waste. There was (is) also another check disable, which I can't find quickly in my notes, something like: extensions.checkCompatibility.2.1 or similar, which actually did something, but doesn't seem to any more (which is why I don't have it enabled currently). If there were a config to ignore compatibility checking beyond the first (major) number, it would at least give people a chance to try things. I assume that the reason people work on Seamonkey is because they want people to use it, therefore an option to disable at least some of the checks would be really useful. This *is* use at your own risk software, and an option is WAY safer than having users fiddling inside install.rdf. -- Bill Davidsen david...@tmr.com We are not out of the woods yet, but we know the direction and have taken the first step.

For financial services, I accept all cookies and all popups. Also, for one bank, I spoof Firefox without any mention of SeaMonkey. -- David E.

As I type this it is not evident in this email, but on the browser pages and bookmarks, the text is not right. This was not true in the last version. This only has happened since I upgraded a few minutes ago. Please advise. Bernie If you are on WindowsXP try playing around with the following preferences: // use cleartype rendering for downloadable fonts (win xp only) pref(gfx.font_rendering.cleartype.use_for_downloadable_fonts, true); // use cleartype rendering for all fonts always (win xp only) pref(gfx.font_rendering.cleartype.always_use_for_content, false); Phil Found the problem. Downloaded Firefox 5.0 Had the same exact problem with text in bookmarks and certain sites like slickdeals.net. Updated my video drivers. No help. Looked on Mozilla Firefox forum for some similar problems. Found one guy shut off hardware acceleration and fixed a weird letter spacing problem he had. Shut off hardware acceleration in Firefox. Problem gone. I expect the same when I reinstall Seamonkey 2.1 or 2.2 when available.

I'm not sure what you mean, but as you can see from my message, there are ways to customize the message. Many of them are achievable by editing the mailnews.reply_header_* options in about:config. It has been a while since I last changed mine, but I suppose there is a reference somewhere -- let me see... ...yes, here it is: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Mailnews.reply_header_* I don't know if there is an extension/tool to help customizing it. There might be; it doesn't look like it would be a big job to write one. It's also possible to customize the signature, in two levels: 1. In the Account Settings dialog, you can create a custom signature. 2. You can also use additional software, like TagZilla, to add custom taglines. ... is it avaliable foe download??? b ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

The Mnenhy extension might help, but I don't think the current version is compatible with SeaMonkey 2.1.
