Re: v2.20 is out!
On 8/17/2013 10:20 PM PT, Justin Wood (Callek) typed: So will there be a 2.20.1, because of a Firefox 23.0.1 chemspill release? What is that about? Firefox 23.0.1 is not a security release, but a stability and a bug fix release. The bugs they hit don't affect us. (except for a SINGLE bug they are taking as a ridealong, of which is extremely minor and not worth the effort on our end to do a respin for, we'll take its fix in the next version of SeaMonkey) Thanks. I couldn't find any 2.20.1 in Bugzilla. I did download the 2.20.1 for Firefox earlier. :) -- Why eat ants when an uncle will do? --Tymoutta Aardvarka of Sarcastica /\___/\ Ant(Dude) @ http://antfarm.ma.cx (Personal Web Site) / /\ /\ \Ant's Quality Foraged Links: http://aqfl.net | |o o| | \ _ /If crediting, then use Ant nickname and AQFL URL/link.

Anyone affected by Bug 903451?
I created this bug for Seamonkey 2.20: Program is starting much, much slower. First about 3 seconds of 100% CPU, then it falls back in CPU use but does not progress. Disk does not rattle (no swapping). When starting with -mail, after some time the accounts and folders list appears but the message list area remains grey for about 10 more seconds. Then program springs alive and works at normal performance. Tracing reveals no suspicious network activity. Server (IMAP) is connected OK. Testing with a different account and removing all .msf files hints in the direction that the startup time is proportional to the number of .msf files. An account with only standard folders starts much quicker than my own account, and after the removal of .msf files mine started quicker as well. However after the program is shut down and restarted (now with empty .msf files as I have not yet visited all those folders) it is just as slow as before. (Bug 903451 in BugZilla) It is confirmed by Ian Neal, but not much more info. It could be that it only affects IMAP users and it also looks like it affects mainly users with many folders and/or multiple accounts. For me, it is a blocking problem in the rollout of this version. But maybe there is a local cause that could be worked around... I wonder if anyone here has noticed it. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

I hardly use my Imap account and it has no subfolders. No problems starting SM. I have always start with browser+mail. Sometimes after I terminate SM I have 100% CPU usage on one processor and have to 'kill' it. That started under SM 2.19 and has continued under 2.20. Linux x64.

Windows 8 Management...
Hello all, Can anyone advise as to how I can make SM my mail program in Windows 8? I thought it was through IE and it is not. Each time I go into a program other than through SM and want to mail a file, windows ask for ms mail account info to connect and send. I do not want to have to dl and save every file I wish to forward. Any ideas or suggestions?

Rob, did you try with a new profile? A minimal configured one? yes. also with safe mode. no difference except that with an account with few folders the startup appears to be a bit quicker. no news servers are configured in these accounts, only IMAP servers that are on the local network. once the very slow startup is completed the program operates normally. see Bug 903451 there is no logging of the firewall, it is a windows security policy that allows only outgoing traffic within the LAN network range. on my Linux system (which is directly on internet) I see no outgoing connection during startup either. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

This happens despite the fact that my Help Applications indicate to open and display PDF files in a SeaMonkey window via the Adobe Reader plugin. My testing indicates the problem lies at the Web site since other sites do indeed display PDF files with the same application/pdf MIME type in SeaMonkey windows via the plugin. -- David E.
