Assuming you're meaning using SeaMonkey, I'm not sure what your issue is. Mine is set so that every computer I use has the same IMAP accounts and all of them show all messages, archives, folders, etc. going back to the beginning of time. I would think the only limitation would be your email provider and their limits on storage. Mine is Gigabytes so I've yet to run into an issue. If you're having trouble please tell us how your IMAP account(s) are configured. Yes I am using SeaMonkey. My email provider limits each account to 2 GB and one of my accounts is at 1.74GB, lots of PDF's attached to the emails. I want to preserve the mails and attachments and locally is better for me. Synchronization is great because the computers I use occasionally (once a week) match my main computer. But, I would like to remove older messages (30 days) from the server without deleting them from all my computers also. I have found that deleting from the server deletes from the local computers also. I am afraid to change any of my settings because I do not want to inadvertently delete my older local messages. Hopefully any changes will not delete any older messages. My current synchronization settings are: Keep messages for this account on this computer Synchronize all messages locally regardless of age Don't delete any messages Always keep flagged messages Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. You could use mail filters to achieve that. For example, I have rules to make copies of some of my IMAP mail to local folders at reception. You can setup a rule to delete mail before a specific date and apply the rule to your IMAP folders. However it doesn't look that Seamonkey supports rules like 'older than 90 days' which would be nice.

Re: Adobe Flash player v18.0 b203 plugin crashing?
I am not crashing but I can no longer go to full screen any more. However, I am on SM 2.36. It's likely something that's not fixed in 2.33.1 that is in later version of SM. You could always try the 2.35 contrib build (https://l10n.mozilla-community.org/~akalla/unofficial/seamonkey/nightly/latest-comm-release-windows32/) which *should* wind up being what is basically built from FF 38.1ESR release to be released soon. Keep your installer for 2.33.1 handy in case you need to revert back. Is that an official build that QA testers are using for the final release? I think so yes. It was Phil Chee who was mentioning it being built in the How Dead is Seamonkey thread from a couple days ago. Pasted here for your info: Bug 1177041 - (SM2.35-Uplift) Bugs / Patches to be uplifted to comm-release for SeaMonkey 2.35 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1177041 https://wiki.mozilla.org/SeaMonkey/StatusMeetings/2015-07-07#Roundtable_-_Personal_Status_Updates https://wiki.mozilla.org/SeaMonkey/StatusMeetings/2015-07-07#Ratty Thanks. From those links, I don't see them mention about Flash? I would imagine you'd have to dig through the Firefox bugs to see what Flash stuff got fixed between FF36 and FF39. So what I am saying is that between SM 2.33.1 and SM 2.35 (or 2.36), this crashing may have been fixed but you would have to find out that info on your own. Personally, I'm having good luck thus far on 64-bit SM 2.36. It seems like Firefox and other Mozilla web browsers are having crashes too. Also, Adobe will be releasing another version this week so I am going to wait. I think this is an Adobe's issue, not Mozilla's and SeaMonkey's. -- I don't know how good ants are at swimmin', but I'd be willing to bet that a good fire'd get their attention. --MacGyver in Trumbo's World episode /\___/\ 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.

Gallagher wrote: HenriK wrote: In trying to update a copy of SM v.2.30 to the latest version on a Win7Home Premium PC, the update fails and an error message is returned claiming a 2nd version of SM is running. After a file-by-file search using Windows Explorer, I couldn't find any evidence of a 2nd copy of SM but I wasn't clear about what evidence I should have been looking for. Try looking at the Processes tab of Windows Task Manager (CTRL-SHIFT-ESC). Do you see any SeaMonkeys there? This sometimes occurs when SM doesn't shut down correctly. Thanks for the thought. I looked in Task Manager and didn't see anything beyond the single copy I thought I was running. I wonder if the problem could be caused by some stray bit of material lurking in the registry? If I tell Control Panel to deinstall SeaMonkey, my understanding is that the profile, mail, bookmarks, etc., do NOT get deleted. Is that a correct understanding? If so, might a SM deinstallation and installation of the most recent SM version solve my problem? Or, would a deinstallation/new installation create more trouble? Precisely that advice has been given many times in this forum by authoritative experts, just as you say. Worth a try, once you've shut down all copies/versions of SM. If you still get the error message even when WTM says you're clear, post back. I am really confused. Win7 Home Task Manager consistently indicates no SM is running after a deinstall of v.2.30. Fortunately, my profile info was left untouched by the v.2.30 deinstall process. BUT, I still get the error message that the v.2.33.1, the newest version won't install because another copy of SM (version not stated) is running. After clicking past the error message window, however, I find that v.2.33.1 has, in fact, been installed. How do I get rid of this nuisance error message? Although I have been around since the MS-DOS days and don't really understand much about any Windows version after W98, I can't help but wonder if some odd bid of something has been left by the SM v.2.30 deinstall process in the registry or some other obscure place or that the v.2.33.1 install mechanism code fails to do something it was supposed to do. Again, any ideas on how to get rid of the nuisance error message and what is causing this problem? Thanks, in advance for pointers to tutorials, and any suggestions or advice. Knowing nothing about the issue, I am reminded of times when I had to reboot the whole computer because some program had left an in-use flag on a file that a program needed and only a reboot would clear it. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
