Problem installing Seamonkey 2.7.1 for a friend
The problem is that they can not connect to their internet provider. They and I both use comcast.net. I've been connected for years without a problem. I've called comcast and we are using the correct port and the server setting are correct. But comcast still does not connect.

Another Down Load Problem (2.7.1)
That's three in a row. First it was 2.6.1, then 2.7, and now 2.7.1. In each case, I attempted to download through check for updates, and in each case SM installed and ended with the Release Notes/Changes page. However, when I leave the page and attempt to start SM, I get XULRunner Couldn't read application.ini. Yes, every time. So, off to (yikes!) IE to try another download. Finally worked each time, although I wind up with a very slow SM which eventually gets better. So, what's happening here? How do I avoid it? Is it better to d/l through IE than SM? (Yes, I'm now in the habit of making a fresh copy of my profile before d/l the new version, and I also keep a copy of the setup file for the current and previous versions, in case I can't get the new one for some reason. Thank heavens!) ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Yeah, I had a look around too. Apparently they are deliberately holding on IMAP in order to push for their proprietary DeltaSync protocol. But I remembered I have an old Hotmail account I no longer use. I checked it -- yeah, it is still active. So I tried to set it up in Seamonkey according to these instructions: http://www.liveside.net/2009/03/13/pop3-technology-has-now-rolled-out-to-hotmail-customers-worldwide/ ...but actually, I just followed the SM new-account wizard and filled in the blanks. Turns out it download the messages with no problems using the default POP3 port 110, with no encryption. (Although that might have been my antivirus, Avast -- there's a gateway to live.com on port 995 that I don't remember setting up, so it might be that it auto-configures these gateways for known services, so I might be using SSL on port 995 without knowing it.) Manually changing the options for Connection Security SSL/TLS (port 995) didn't seem to cause any problems. I also set up SMTP on port 587 (with STARTTLS) and it worked fine, except for a message telling me to log on and do a CAPTCHA -- which I wasn't able to find. Now I remember why I never liked Hotmail... -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm. Unauthorized use will be prosecuted under the DMCA. -=-=- ...

Header shows wrong tags when displaying articles in a tab
Currently on SM 2.7, But I don't think it's version dependent! I have a mail folder with some messages which I think are duplicates, and I'm trying to check this. - I tag one article as 'to do' and the other article as 'later' - I point to the first and ask for it to be opened in a new tab. - I point to the second and ask for it to be opened in a new tab. I expect that when I go to the first tab the header of the displayed article will have it labeled as 'to do' and when I go to the second tab the header will show its tag as 'later' However in both tabs the displayed article is tagged as 'later' ! If I close the tabs and simply open the articles, they display with the proper tags. If I point to the first, the 'to do' article and ask for it to be opened in a new tab, and then go to that tab, the article is displayed with the wrong i.e. 'later' tag. Is this an already known bug? -- Rostyk ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
