What was completely unexpected, though, was that messages for the ABC

seeing dozens of ABC messages in the (relocated) Job no. 5 folder! I
examined that filter, and sure enough, it had been modified to point to
the Job no. 5 folder.

Has anyone else seen this?


It turns out it was worse than I thought: EVERY single ONE of the more

My wife experienced something similar a few days ago (SM 2.8 on an XP 
machine); I had it happen a day later (also SM 2.8 on an XP machine). 
Somehow, changes in one filter are being applied to other filters. We 
have only a few filters each, so the pain was much smaller than yours.

It occurs to me that you may not have the reader set to headers-only
mode, in which case I think it will fail. My guess is that this is
because whoever wrote the code didn't understand NNTP and the difference
between the DELETE and CANCEL actions. That's which when you delete a
message it tries to do a cancel and take it off every machine on Earth,
instead of removing it from your local storage and header info. I argued
that with developers about 1998, and decided no one is so sure in their
opinion as those who ignore the facts and RFC info.

Trying to do CANCEL (a) doesn't often work, and (b) would be like delete
trying to contact all cc recipients and destroy their copy as well.
Sorry, that pisses me off 15 years later...



I never was able to get any sort of filter to work even Chris I

Open Window on link click behavior

[Bill Davidsen]

I used to have SM set to open a link in the current tab on left click, and in a 
new tab. That's from the browser. In mail, left click opened a new window, and 
middle click a tab on the current browser window. I can't seem to replicate that 
behavior with 2.7.2 or 2.8. Has something changed?


Notes:
- on the update from an older version a lot of config option got changed, I 
probably just haven't gotten them right.
- Yes, I know that I can inconveniently replicate that functionality from a 
menu, using a click->select->click sequence.

Have you tried "deleting" them? Filters work fine for me in ngs, but I
choose to delete them in the filter.

This is what I get :
http://www.screencast.com/t/wc08FQZZ


afaik, NS/SM has never had NG filters up to 1119.
I don't know about 2+.
At any rate, I have never been able to find or use
such for NG's. fyi- cannot del NG postings...
at least not easily and possibly not legally.



I have always had message filters for Newsgroups, and I think you've
misunderstood about how "Delete Messages" is accomplished.

We can't do it in the newsgroups, but we can set our NG message
*filters* to
delete them, so that we never have to see them. It is so nice. :)

As of SM 2.7.2 on Linux they seem to work, the posts are just not
indexed into the list of available postings in the heading frame. There
used to be a way to make an entire thread hidden after it was in the
index, but I can't find any info on how that used to work. It was not
with a filter, just a mark on the thread that kept it off the screen.

Anyway, filters do seem to work for me in ng.




Bill, are you speaking of Message->Mark->Thread as Read??

Actually no, that wasn't an option there the last time I cared, I was just using 
delete as the action. Which did a local delete, not a CANCEL globally.

Filtering on the wrong item.

You don't want to filter on "From" -- you want to filter on "Newsgroups".
You will have to use the Customize choice and add it. Then filter on your

Your example above says "ends" three times, and I don't think that will ever

No, you should blacklist (filter out) Google Groups, the source of nearly
all Usenet spam. Real people use Gmail and Yahoo addresses, so that is
not a good idea.

http://twovoyagers.com/improve-usenet.org/



I had a look at that... and at this page:

http://twovoyagers.com/improve-usenet.org/filters_ex2.html

it's claimed that Thunderbird/Seamonkey is unable to filter on
Message-ID. That may be true on the default setup (I'm not sure, it has
been *so long* since I started a profile from scratch..) but it's not
completely true. First, it's possible to create custom headers as
explained here:

http://kb.mozillazine.org/Thunderbird_:_FAQs_:_Filters

There are two ways to do news filtering (actual;ly NNTP protocol filtering). One 
is using the set of headers provided by the "overview" program, which includes 
only certain headers rather than all, and which can be used without downloading 
the article. The other is to download the article complete, and look at all 
headers and the body. I don't think Seamonkey does that.


This limits the headers to those in overview, which includes the Message-ID 
header. Note that other headers can be provided if the server is configured to 
do so, but assume most aren't. So you can filter on Message-ID, but AFAIK not 
totally arbitrary headers.



(I dimly remember having to do *something* to get that option to set up
custom headers. Maybe they are/used to be hidden by default, and I had
to change some about:config setting?)

And then, for even more options, there's FiltaQuilla:

http://mesquilla.com/extensions/filtaquilla/

Hope this helps, I spent about 20 years running news servers for major companies 
and ISPs, it was a fun time and great technical forum before porn took over.

Mail filters turn off - SM 2.7.2

[Bill Davidsen]

Not a new issue, been around for a while, perhaps someone has a clur?

I have kind of a lot of mail filters on my business mailbox, and every once in a 
while, 3-4 times a month, I see messages which shoukld have gone into subfolders 
of various kinds. When I scan the filters from the _tools_ menu, I see that the 
filter has become unchecked and is not active. Checking it and running by hand 
solves the immediate problem, but does anyone have a good idea why this happens?


I don't see this in smaller mail or newsgroups accounts, but I am not confident 
that it's only related to mail volume.


OS Linux, SM 2.7.2, all 32 bit.

Have you checked your distro bug reports for the same/similar issue? I'm
not familiar with openSUSE (I use Ubuntu/Debian/Fedora), but it looks as
if your distro 11.2 has moved along to 2.8:

http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Evergreen_11.2
List of updates for 11.2 from Evergreen
These are the updates for openSUSE 11.2 made by the Evergreen project.
The list is sorted with latest updates first.
[seamonkey released Bug #750044 see changelog ver. 2.8]

-  https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=750044

That would also indicate to me that they provide all of the necessary
packages/libs to run SeaMonkey 2.8. Perhaps you can/should upgrade?

Profile Problems

[Frog]

I currently have two profiles on my computer...one for SeaMonkey version 
1.1.19 and another profile for SeaMonkey version 2.8.  Recently, with 
much help from this group, a new location was established for my 2.8 
profile on the E drive (previously it was on my C drive).  My plan was 
to remove the old profile from the C drive once it was determined that 
the new location profile was working properly.  Well, I removed the old 
profile from the C drive today and did I get a surprise--nothing worked 
on the 2.8 version without having to set up SeaMonkey all over again.  I 
attempted to fix this problem without success until I finally restored 
my system to April 6.  Now that I have it working again, I want to build 
a new profile on the E drive.  Here is where I am having problems---I 
don't know how to migrate the address book, bookmarks, messages, 
settings, etc. from the existing/old E profile to the newly created 
profile.  Is there some simple solution for accomplishing this task?


Windows XP Pro SP3.

Thanks,
Frog

Sorry, I cannot give you any worthwhile advice at this time.

Would it be possible for you to clear your SeaMonkey Error Console
(Tools->Web Development->Error Console), put SeaMonkey through it's
paces and then after it fails again, check out the error console and
post the results heremight give those in the know a bit of useful
info!



Firstly, it appears that I lied. Nothing significant - it is 2 x x64 and
1 32-bit setup. The Error Console shows nothing at all. Nada.
This is being sent from the 32-bit system, if it works then the problem
is specific to Mail rather than News.



As you can see, sending to a Newsgroup was successful.  I then tried 
sending a mail (from a different account to the previous abort) and it 
died again.  This time the error-console showed something, but not 
anything useful.


SessionStore: The session file is invalid: TypeError: 
this._initialState.windows[0] is undefined


Yup - I did not have anything in the browser window.  This message 
courtesy of another system where I don't have the problem, it runs 
Opensuse 12.1.

toolkit (used since 2.0). The transition was necessary because there was
not people to maintain the old XPFE toolkit, and as time went it became
harder and harder to make it work with current versions of the Gecko
engine. And the Firefox guys are not interested in recreating the
"groupmark" feature.

Therefore, there is no longer a "group identifier" -- groupmarks were
converted into subfolders in the bookmarks tree. What you are referring
to as a "group identifier" is just the folder name now.

The old behavior can be approximated, however, by *middle*-clicking (or
Ctrl+clicking) on the folder title. It took me a couple weeks to get
used to the new behavior, but I found it an acceptable substitute. Most
Windows mice nowadays have either a middle button or a clickable scroll
wheel.



Thanks. I also hadn't realized that the mouse wheel was 
clickable.

I have 3 systems running 11.2 Evergreen. Two are 32-bit systems and the
third is running the 64-bit version. All three have the same problem.

When I want to send a mail I have prepared, Seamonkey dies immediately.
The Browser window(s), Mail window, all gone. Restarting reopens my
browser sessions but the version of the mail in "Drafts" is a few
minutes old.
The only error messages I see are the two lines below:

seamonkey-bin: misc.c:39: px_malloc0: Assertion `mem != ((void *)0)'
failed.
/usr/bin/seamonkey: line 127: 4213 Aborted $MOZ_PROGRAM "$@"

My suspicion is that Seamonkey is depending on some feature of glibc (or
similar) which my older version does not provide.
glibc-2.10.1-10.11.1.i586

Obviously the level information is for one of the 32-bit systems. All
three systems are kept "up to date". I'm just guessing as to the cause,
could someone who understands this stuff say more?

Thanks


Sorry, I cannot give you any worthwhile advice at this time.

Would it be possible for you to clear your SeaMonkey Error Console 
(Tools->Web Development->Error Console), put SeaMonkey through it's 
paces and then after it fails again, check out the error console and 
post the results heremight give those in the know a bit of useful info!
