Hello

I'm on Seamonkey 2.2, Linux, KDE 4:4.6.4-1, Debian Unstable.

I have a problem where drag and drop stops working, notably for mail.
This happens some time after Seamonkey has been running for awhile.
After it happens, I can no longer drag and drop tabs, mail items, etc.

This has been happening for awhile. I think it started around Seamonkey
2.0 or the late 1.x series.

Anyone else have this issue or know anything about it?

Thanks


I can't say I've noticed it, but my usage with SeaMonkey doesn't 
typically leave mail open for a long time. Next time it happens can you

Re: SM Exchange server

2011-08-02 Thread Philip TAYLOR (Webmaster, Ret'd)

 Re recently went over to an MS Exchange server at work and I changed
 my E-mail from POP to IMAP to support it. All this happened with SM
 2.2 as well.

 Since then I have had messages that come up blank and messages where
 I can't see the attachments. Both look fine in the web client but
 not on SM. I have not seen these kinds of issues before.  I don't
 even know where to start to track this down or fix it. Any ideas on
 how to get the attachments to show?  It doesn't happen on all
 e-mail, just some.

 Is this a SM 2.2 issue? An IMAP issue? A Avast issue?  Does SM just
 not play nicely with Exchange? Does Thunderbird play any nicer?

I have experienced exactly the same behaviour (using Seamonkey older
than 2.2 : e.g., 2.0.14) ever since my IMAP provider performed an
exchange upgrade to Exchange 2010; prior to that (running, I think,
Exchange 2003) there had been no problems.  I have reported the
problem to the server administration team, but as (a) mine is a
grade and favour account, and (b) IMAP is not a formal part of
their offering, I do not expect the problem to be resolved in the
near future.  For what it's worth, moving the offending message
to an otherwise empty folder can sometimes allow it to be seen
and/or the attachment accessed.


 I'm wondering if this is going to force me over to Outlook?

Wouldn't seppuku be a less painful option ?

Re: Composer - Lose my ASCII characters when saving

Hi Phillip,

Thanks very much for your reply.  That's weird, I'm using exactly the
same version of Sea Monkey and OS X - I wonder what it is about my set-
up that is causing this problem?

What happens my end is:

- I enter copy; in the source view.
- Upon saving, it automatically switches to normal view.
   Here it shows ©.
- Going back to source view, it also shows ©

When the page is viewed in a browser/email client it shows a capital A
with a grave accent before the ©

I have tried switching on the option to 'retain source formatting' but
that doesn't seem to have any effect.

As for the Charset, I've tried switching the encoding to UTF-8 but
have the same issue with SeaMonkey changing the code back to © and
therefore the rendering in the browser and email client.

About:config - was all the same as you too - so I'm puzzled.

Thanks so much for taking the time to reply though - it's all so
frustrating, apart from this niggly problem I was loving SeaMonkey.

For me, Seamonkey 2.2 Composer under Windows/XP manifests
exactly the opposite behaviour.  If I enter copy; in
source view, it shews as © in other modes and reverts
to shewing as copy; in source view.  If I enter © in
source view, it mutates to copy; after cycling through
another view and then back to source view.

In my experience, Microsoft does not really put a lot of effort into
IMAP. After all these years, the IMAP support in Outlook 2010 is still
lacking compared to free products. Their goal, after all, is to push you
into a fully-MS solution (Exchange + Outlook) using their proprietary
protocol.

I wouldn't be surprised if the IMAP in Exchange also had issues.

Re: Data Manager and Firefox Permissions Manager

2011-08-02 Thread Robert Kaiser

MCBastos schrieb:

I have just seen this:

http://blog.mozilla.com/verdi/73/how-do-i-manage-website-permissions/

 From the looks of it, it seems to have some overlap in functionality
with the Data Manager in Seamonkey. I know KaiRo offered the Data
Manager to Firefox, and since it's in trunk, I guess the Permissions
Manager will eventually find its way to Seamonkey.

Is there any work being done to address the duplicated functionality?


Permission Manager will very probably not find its way into SeaMonkey, 
as it just implements a small subset of what Data Manager does anyhow.


Permission Manager is doing the list by host and not summing up by 
domain, which increases the right-hand list substantially in some cases. 
OTOH, it looks a bit nicer and less complicated, the former can probably 
be changed if someone with visual design skills ever helps out 
SeaMonkey, the latter (probably) can't be changed, as actually showing 
and managing data instead of just the permissions really ends up being 
complicated - but also more powerful.


Data Manager is a tool for the advanced user, not necessarily for the 
big masses, which is why it's built into SeaMonkey, which targets the 
former and only available as an add-on for Firefox, which mainly targets 
the latter.

Thanks in advance.


Valentim, I'm not certain how to answer you as your header information
says you are using Thunderbird 5.0. If this is the case, then you need
to look at Tools-Options, maybe!! Or, maybe, ask your question on
mozilla.support.thunderbird group on the server.

If you are using SeaMonkey 2.2, have a look at
Edit-Preferences-Browser-Tabbed Browsing and at
Edit-Preferences-Browser-Link Behavior to see if they are set up
correctly.

HTH



Note that clicking a link from Thunderbird to open in SeaMonkey falls
under the SeaMonkey category Links from other applications.  For Open
links passed from other applications at [Edit  Preferences  Browser
Link Behavior], you need to select the A new tab in the current window
radio button.  In that case, you don't need to use the scroll wheel;
just select the link in Thunderbird.

HOWEVER, all other non-SeaMonkey applications will also open links in a
new tab instead of a new window.



Gee, David, now you have me wondering if I actually read the subject 
(probably not) or just answered the question I thought was being asked 
in the body by the OP!!

Thanx Philip,

We did indeed go with Exchange 2011 I think.  I tried moving to a new

I do like a few things, the biggest is my phone and computer are now in

But the number of small issues that were not there when I had a Linux

It also deletes contacts in the personal addressbook when you delete
them from a distribution list. (SM2.2.1)


Will this bug also corrected/fixed in SM 2.3 ?


First, did you file a bug on it? Second, do the developers agree that
this is a bug?

A distribution list is a subset of addresses, and if you delete an
address from the address book I think it's correct to delete it from
the
list. *But* not the other way around. Just because someone no longer
belongs on a list like a task force or committee, they shouldn't cease
to exist!


Agreed.

If SM is behaving as described, here's a first stab at a workaround
pending a bug fix:

1) Drag the recipient out of the list to a different /address book/.
This should delete him/her from the original AB as well as the list.
Verify deletion from first AB and list and presence in second AB.

2) Drag the recipient from the other AB back to the original AB (not to
the list). This should restore him/her to the original AB but not to the
list. Verify deletion from second AB and presence in first AB but
absence from list.


Unfortunately drag and drop in the address book doesn't work, either,
starting in 2.2 you are protected against accidentally moving an address
between address books.


$#!+... is there no move feature at all anymore??

As I said in the next paragraph, the fix will be in a future release, but there 
will not be a 2.2.1 bugfix release. But you are correct, at this time move 
doesn't work.



I stopped trying nightly and beta releases when it was announced that it
will be fixed in a future release rather than a 2.2.1 fix. I might
like new features, but I can't justify doing QA on every feature which
is needed for daily use. From what I read here it sounds like address
book is more broken not less.


Sounds like it to me, too.

The next paragraph (which you trimmed) said it would be fixed in a future

this is just a bad build that we will get past. What is the feeling of
the development team on this build or is this just the build where the
issues have finally gotten to areas that affect me?


Yes, SM 2.2 contained more issues than usual. We tried to fix some
issues 2.1 had but others popped up, especially in MailNews and the
address book (some things were not fixed entirely, and changes
Thunderbird developers made to shared MailNews code were not fixed on
our end fast enough).

2.2 was the first release after we switched to the rapid release
process, and in this case we had even fewer time than the usual 6-18
weeks that the process dictates because 2.1 had already been delayed.

Also there are some problems that appear due to the all-volunteer nature
of the project. There are only very few developers in the first place,
reviews (which are mandatory for any code change) take quite long. In
former times (before 2.2) we had many months time to fix things and
release when it's ready. Now we're pretty much date-driven. This
requires paying more attention to regressions by everyone involved.
There is a lesson to be learned there, and I think 2.3 will be better
overall [even though I personally would have voted to respin 2.3b1 so
that we don't release a beta with major issues that are already known to
be fixed for 2.3].

Personally I'm not a huge fan of the rapid, date-driven release process
either but we have little choice: Security fixes (which usually affect
Gecko or other code shared with Firefox) are only fixed on the latest
stable Mozilla platform version so we cannot skip one without exposing
our users to security risks. This is (very) unfortunate but nothing we
can influence, so there is no point in complaining about it. We have to
make the best out of it.


So does the API of Gecko change with every release? I would think you would be
calling for services and fixes would be in the service. Does it really change so
much that you can't link against the current code?

I like the Linux model, where stability fixes are provided against recent
releases, so people don't have to constantly upgrade. I would think that was a
problem for Mozilla and corporate users as well, and a reason to provide bug fix
only support for 90 days or six months, or something reasonable. No corporation
I have supported would update softweare every six weeks, other than to apply
patches.



Might be an interesting read:
http://news.cnet.com/8301-30685_3-20074590-264/rapid-release-firefox-meets-corporate-backlash/


Frankly, I think Mozilla has lost touch, expecting people to do an upgrade every 
six weeks. And forced silent upgrades? I may be wrong, that may be default 
rather than forced, you can protect yourself if you remember to do so. Still, 
no support after six weeks seems to be ceding the serious browser market to others.


An interesting read indeed.

That last one is bizarre. There is no way you should see the character unless

you can use the less command to view the file, hopefully this happens in a 
small test file as well.



When the page is viewed in a browser/email client it shows a capital A
with a grave accent before the ©

I suspect that you are using some 16bit character set, and the data you see as 
two characters is intended to be viewed as one. Yes, I'm guessing on that, take 
it as a thought provoking idea, not an explanation.

It's possible that if you're using certain character sets on a Mac that there is

1. Secure Login https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/secure-login/

It is not packaged as SeaMonkey compatible but is easily patched
to make it so - see secure_login+sm.diff attached.


That's a good start, but there are some more issues hidden under the
hood. For example, the automatic submitting doesn't seem to work
with SM (i.e. needs further fixes). One issue I've found is in
secureLogin.js, function initializeSignonAutofillFormsStatus.
There's a version check that doesn't take the application into
account. The author's intention was to check for FF 2.x, but SM 2.x
also runs into that code.

It would be great if you could get this extension running with SM
completely and then contact the author. If he doesn't want to
incorporate the changes into his version, I'm sure Philip Chee would
be glad to put your mod on his site (license it GPL, so should be OK).


[I thought I've posted this yesterday, but seems I've missed.]

I've already contacted the author (Sebastian Tschan) and he replied 
I should now contact the Abine company, being current maintainer of 
the extension.  I've mailed them, also.  In the meantime one may 
find updated compatibility patch attached to this message.

Your bookmarks are now part of places.sqlite.

If you set browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML to true, they will be
exported to file bookmarks.html every time you terminate SeaMonkey.
When you use the Bookmarks Manager to update your bookmarks, you can
also export them to bookmarks.html (or any other file).  Then, you can
still use bookmarks.html as your home page, as I do.

Easier than manually exporting, though - once you have the

Re: Scroll wheel clicking a link opens a new SeaMonkey window

Thanks in advance.


Valentim, I'm not certain how to answer you as your header information
says you are using Thunderbird 5.0. If this is the case, then you need
to look at Tools-Options, maybe!! Or, maybe, ask your question on
mozilla.support.thunderbird group on the server.

If you are using SeaMonkey 2.2, have a look at
Edit-Preferences-Browser-Tabbed Browsing and at
Edit-Preferences-Browser-Link Behavior to see if they are set up
correctly.

HTH



Note that clicking a link from Thunderbird to open in SeaMonkey falls
under the SeaMonkey category Links from other applications.  For Open
links passed from other applications at [Edit  Preferences  Browser
Link Behavior], you need to select the A new tab in the current window
radio button.  In that case, you don't need to use the scroll wheel;
just select the link in Thunderbird.

HOWEVER, all other non-SeaMonkey applications will also open links in a
new tab instead of a new window.


I see I didn't make myself clear.

This is the situation


I don't use SeaMonkey e-mail/newsgroup reader, you already know that by now.

I was merely talking about SeaMonkey web-browser. When I'm surfing the 
web and I come across an interesting subject that I want to see/read but 
I don't want to leave the web-page I'm at the moment, I want to open the 
link in a new Tab by clicking it with the mouse wheel, just like I do in 
Firefox.


Is that possible?

Hardly stupid, but perhaps in your case, sub-optimal.

For myself, I have always used the return key as a
matter of course, and never considered the possibility
that there might be a mouse-oriented alternative.

Look in Edit/Preferences/Browser.  See if there is a selection under

previously created. HELP! I can open my files, but I cannot edit them.
I manage 5 web sites and I can't do anything with Composer 2.2. Should
I go back to an earlier version?


I think I know what your problem is but don't have a perfect solution.
Seems like a bug in Seamonkey 2.2.

When I open web pages saved on my hard drive with Composer and right
click on links, Link Properties is grayed out. Composer is in Normal
mode.
If I then go to HTML Tags mode via the menubar at the bottom of the
page, right clicking on links gives an active Link Properties. Going
back to Normal mode seems to retain the ability to get to Link
Properties with a right click.

Clearly there is a problem with Seamonkey. Also switching back and forth
between Normal and Tags does not always make Link Properties available
in Normal mode. There may be other functions that don't work quite right
in Composer.

Testing was done on a WinXP SP3 system.


I had had the same link properties problem with Composer on Linux (Linux
Mint 10 / Ubuntu 11.04) - I wasn't clever / persistent enough to find
the workaround as you did, however, and just switched to using
BlueGriffon. -RL


Sorry, this is such a sticking point for me that I'll stay with 2.0.14 
until I read that Composer for web sites is working again. After all 
that's what a browser suite is supposed to be about! And I've been 
using the SeaMonkey composer for my web site, well...forever.  I suppose 
I should at least check out Kompozer, however.
