Hello, Recently ive installed PuppyLinux Wary 5.5 on my Pentium 3 Pc.
I'm new with it. Now i used the standard Seamonkey browser to try
visit YouTube. But i can't reach the site because of outdated
software it seems.

Whatsapp should i do? Can i Just intall a newer version Seamonkey or
update it?

Would like to hear how to make it all work.

Martin


NOTE: The OP is asking for a SeaMonkey that works on a Pentium 3 PC,
i.e. maybe twenty years old tech!!

Does any (current'ish) SeaMonkey work on that vintage tech?? Should OP
try a Mozilla Suite, maybe??

Just a wild thought, does the user you are reading the email as have
authority to make global changes in the application?
You might try opening that app as ADMIN and try the change.

What version ships with your distro?  Current release is 2.49.4 and can
be downloaded from the seamonkey website for manual installation.  If
your distro is a debian or ubuntu derivative you can add ubuntuzilla to
your repositories to install it.

Dave



As far as I know, no distro ships SeaMonkey anymore.

For a 32-bit operating system you have to download.

.

For a 64-bit SeaMonkey they need the contributed build.

I've never had any trouble with YouTube on any version of SM. On the 
other hand, my Android browser (not SM) is plagued with irritating ads 
on YouTube despite an ad blocker.


Two basic questions so the experts can help:

1) What version of SM are you using now?

2) What error messages are you getting, if any, and from whom?

I do not know.  I always put the comment on a separate line, immediately

You can add a comment to the end of a line as long as you prefix it with 
2 slashes.

Pharmaceutical companies claim their drug prices are
so high because they have to recover the costs of developing
those drugs.  Two questions:

1.  Why is the U.S. paying the entire cost of development while
prices for the same drugs in other nations are much lower?

2.  Manufacturers of generic drugs did not have those
development costs.  Why are they charging so much for generics?

Thank you, Dirk!  (I knew someone would eventually answer the main
question  :-)   )

I have found that Seamonkey 2.49.3 contains the "about:memory" dialogue
and the minimize memory on that page seems to have reasonably good effect.

No: because this setting was specific to Windows XP and you have Windows
7 and "on Vista and up it has little to no effect" (from
widget/windows/nsWindow.cpp:845). You should expect it to disappear in
SM versions that take on changes subsequent to FF 52.

Is there a fix other than using FF?


How are you accessing Yahoo mail?  I read mine here via

Thru Seamonkey.


Through an email account created in the Mail & Newsgroups
window or web mail in the browser?


Web mail in my browser.

Thanks, I will try out your string.

That's strange because I have no problems if I use Firefox?

Andy


same situation here Andy, except i have not spoofed the useragent
yet.

Hopefully, i will learn how to spoof useragent at the web site given 
earlier.


Right now, Yahoo returns Seamonkey the message: update to FF, update
to Chrome, or continue with legacy yahoo (option does not work).  So
to check the server, i am using FF.

It just started a couple weeks ago.

Worked fine before then but had been saying that it would quit
working on 2/1/19 but continued working for a few weeks after that.



I just went to my freebie Yahoo e-mail account using my SeaMonkey on
Win7 (version shown in sig file) and continued with my legacy Yahoo to
clean up my thirty or so e-mails received over the last month or so 
(O.K., I've been slack!! ;-P ).


WFM!!

Hello all,

I Am trying to figure out what has happened to my Folders and 
sub-Folders in three (3) of my eight (8) accounts...


This occurred after W10 update, all programs were closed.

Any guidance or recommendations on how to recover, etc...

Yes, I did not back up as I recently created these profiles which was 
most likely the best time to do an initial back up...  ;-(


TIA - bo1953


a)	If you look Tools->Switch Profiles do you see more profiles listed 
than you would have expected?? If you find extras, switch to those 
profiles to see if you find your lost Folders.


b)	Look at Edit->Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings and select 'Server 
Settings'. Note the location listed in the 'Local directory'. Close 
SeaMonkey and, in your Windows Explorer, go to that location and see if 
you can find your missing accounts.


HTH.
