I don't chat except using CZ or FB Messenger. I don't spoof Firefox except on
specific cluelessly built sites that don't work right otherwise.

I have an extra special one just for Google:

When the space problem became apparent, had you been compacting:

ever?
automatically?
manually?

I didn't start until 1997, but have been on the same path since. I don't have
nearly so many accounts, so can't offer anything via experience except to give
bisection a try in roughly this tedious fashion:

Close SM.
Remove *.msf from all accounts.
Backup what remains.
Copy only the mail files from one or more of the accounts, up to half the 
total, back.
Start SM Mail.

If good, shutdown SM, copy back half the remainder and try again.

If not, shutdown SM, empty those again, and try the other half.

With any luck, you'll narrow the problem to a single account, or even better, 
one
mail file.

Somewhere along the way, possibly at the start, you may need to remove 
places.sqlite.

GMA was the last Intel GPU generation before Intel moved the GPU from the
Northbridge to the CPU die. Those since then have proven quite reliable with
Linux, and with very respectable performance, not infrequently on par with 
higher
cost discrete GPUs from NVidia and AMD.

Don't let yourself get confused with generations. The numbers for the chipsets 
and
CPUs are different from those for the GPUs. I use
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_graphics_processing_units for 
keeping
things straight.

If you're looking for good value, look for any of the off-lease "refurbs" made
since around 2010. I have 3 Dell Optiplex 760 and 780 models with the last of 
the
GMAs (Gen4) that were the first to do x264 video playback in hardware, very 
decent
compared to early GMAs like the 950, but newer custom builts from 2013 (Haswell 
by
MSI) and 2018 (Kaby Lake by Asus & Gigabyte) that are considerably better. Best
long term value is probably in the 3-4 years old range, Broadwell/Gen8.

Both Intel and AMD are well supported by free drivers, while NVidia continues to
withhold specifications, which forces FOSS driver writers to reverse engineer,
which in turn forces many of its Linux users to use its proprietary drivers that
are often difficult to keep in sync with kernel upgrades.

Methinks the wayback machine is currently useless. Links clicked produce no

Totally exit SM.
Move the content of the unwanted disk directory into its parent.
Delete the unwanted directory.
Restart SM.

I don't know why undo would be unavailable. I don't often move "folders" in 
email
purposely, and it's been a while, probably in 2.49.4, since it happened
accidentally. Maybe there was some content from it open in a browser tab or
otherwise open at the filesystem level, maybe places.sqlite.

I open the application first, then the file, just like in DOS, same as almost 4
decades ago, and using terminals on mainframes a decade before that.

What does "accessibility" mean in that context?

already have it) and used as-is as a place to start.

Compelling sites that don't work in SeaMonkey due to this type of blocking, or

Sites you frequent you might wish to customize, e.g. via add-on:

No method is perfect, but they help a lot.

That's already there. The problem is nothing shows up in the download manager
unless a download is allowed to begin, which means if I want access to the URL I
have to waste my time finding a partial download and deleting it, or nothing at
all ever shows up on the window.

URLs missing from download manager

2019-04-30 Thread Felix Miata
Is there a setting in about:config I can set to put automatic downloads URLs in
the manager even though I've aborted them? Some source pages don't put the 
backup
source URL where it's discoverable. I don't download anything with a browser. I
use a downloader, usually wget, which allows me instant and easy selection of
download location, saved filename editing, and preservation of the source file's

I've been not advertising Firefox for more years than I can remember, with the

You should not write to prefs.js. You can read it. For user.js it's the 
opposite,
the app only reads it, while you create it and write it should you choose to. 
Content
in user.js will be applied on every startup. Prefs added or changed via

normally remains until intentionally changed.

I'm on Linux and using NoScript. Once I've hit the play/pause button the 
correct number of times it
plays or pauses, but it must be hit at least once before play is possible. I 
don't remember how
many times is required. I just keep clicking until I get the desired result.

I'm not sure when this started happening, maybe as much as a month ago. I also 
tried
mozilla.org's 2.49.3, which misbehaves same as 2.49.4 from mozilla.org. I'm not

did not help.

Mozilla.org's Firefox ESR 52.9 also displays all images.

What could cause this inexplicable behavioral difference?

Impressive history, similar to mine. I currently have 25 directories in the

If you keep pressing it long enough, eventually a demon from Firefox devolution
will slither in with insufficient warning and bite you. There was a rather
recent change (post-2.46 IIRC) in some file format somewhere in each profile
that would make going back to some not too old version require restoration of at
least one file from backup, or worse. Better to only move up, not back, unless
your backup system is well maintained, or you know exactly which file(s) are
impacted and proceed accordingly.

Is this your first attempt to use SeaMonkey? Where did you get it from,
mozilla.org? Is it the 64 bit version? 14.04 didn't ship with GTK3 originally,
so you may need to install a newer version from backports. That error message is

You are composing email in plain text format, which uses monospaced fonts. Your
readers are reading proportional fonts. Various ways to possibly solve the
problem include:

1-Direct your readers set their email readers to read using monospace fonts.

2-Compose using rich text (HTML) format (to induce use of monospace fonts).

3-Include  by itself on the first line of your message, and  on the
last line of your message.

4-have your readers use a different email reader.

That behavior frustrated me for over a decade before thinking outside the box
rather recently.

Search for the bookmark. Cut or copy from the undisclosed location. Paste where
you want it to be.

If that doesn't work the way you expect, search, open the found, create new from
the found, then copy or move from "Recently bookmarked" to a suitable folder.

Keyboard might work better alone or in conjunction with DND. I DND very
infrequently, more often by accident than by intent, requiring ESC key, or undo

Try putting

in /chrome/userChrome.css. If it doesn't exist, create it with
file manager and any plain text editor. font-size can be any CSS size you
choose, e.g. 12pt, 18px, 4mm, .4in, smaller, medium, etc. The default you find

No one is forced to use a single browser. SM remains my primary, having taken

different SM versions, several Firefox profiles, 3 in constant use, each using a

I don't think so, unless disk space is exhausted where inbox lives.

I have to think it could well be related. Many individual spams are getting
awfully big. AOL's inbox space might not be big enough to hold messages for the
specified length of time. If she's leaving messages on server for 30 days, try
cutting back to 10 or 14. Check with AOL if inbox size can be increased.

If none are being left on server yet AOL inbox is full, something must be wrong
either with SM or AOL.

I have two POP mail accounts, one set to leave on server 11 days, the other 25.
The one set to 11 is using about 25MB. The one set to 25 is only using about
5MB, but I just reduced it from around 37MB by deleting all emails 3 digits
large, which were running e.g. 159, 164, 241 & 316 KB.

How often does she compact folders? I do it daily. If she never does, maybe
doing it is overdue, especially if triple digit spams have been routinely
reaching it.

Ultimately that could be a place for a solution, but not the only place, nor the
ideal place. Another possibility would be your profile's chrome/userChrome.css
file, which you probably do not have, since by default it does not exist.

Are you using either of the built-in SM themes, default classic or modern, and
tried the other?

> Perhaps someone who knows GTK3 customization can solve this for me.

That would be the ideal magic, but finding such a person with the interest to do
so is another matter.

Things I would try first if I was using Mint 18.2 with Cinnamon:

1-upgrade to 18.3
2-add Mate to see if the problem exists there also
3-if it does not, go back to Cinnamon and see if something Mate added solved it
4-if still a problem in Cinnamon, try yet another DE, e.g. KDE or XFCE
5-repeat 3
6-if still a problem in Cinnamon, search and/or ask in a Cinnamon or Mint users
forum, e.g. https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-mint-84/ or
https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewforum.php?f=208

Absent finding someone or some group who can help with CSS customizaton, either
using ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css or profile's chrome/userChrome.css, you might
try DIY with Domi (SM's Tools -> Web Development ->). The highlight in the left
pane of http://fm.no-ip.com/SS/Moz/sm2491domi-samp.gif shows on the right side
the CSS rules being applied to that element, and you can see btn-color is being
inherited. The hard part is figuring out what overriding rule(s) is/are required
to ensure visible colors get inherited. That's why the much better method is
finding someone who understands GTK3 theming who can ID and suggest a solution
to the root problem, bad or missing theming.

As Frank alluded, this is GTK3-related. 2.48 was built with GTK2. 2.49.1 is 
built
with GTK3. Mint/Cinnamon (David) users seem to have insufficient GTK3 support, 
while
Mate (Richard), whatever DE Ubuntu users are using now (Jaime), and Gnome (home 
of GTK,
obviously) users have the needed GTK3 support. I don't have the invisible 
checkbox/radio
button problem here in KDE3, but I do have some GTK3 customizations 
(~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css

 I've used --ProfileManager on initial startup and rejected the default name and
location for at least a decade, always creating a directory first to contain
profiles where I want them, then pointing to that location and typing in a
suitable profile name when the profile manager opens.

I've not used the profile manager to add an additional a profile in at least as
long. Once profiles.ini exists, it's simple to edit it, to add a profile, or
relocate one, or change the name of one.

For those getting SeaMonkey from mozilla.org, prior versions only required gtk2,
while 2.49.1 requires gtk3, which you may never have needed before now. 'sudo

I wish I could say that. Ever since the Toggle Word Wrap extension quit working,

Dunno how I forgot about this serious irritant:
7-kernels and initrds can take up to 13+ minutes to load before init can start,
though 3-5 minutes is much more common than more than 5. Most delays are 10 or
fewer seconds, but certainly enough to notice compared to 32 bit. 32 bit kernels
& initrds load too fast to measure any attributable delay. Reason(s) for the 64
bit delays have so far proven elusive, and been limited to apparently random
kernels on several particular cross-distro installations on several particular
hosts.

It stops people from being incredulous and asking you why you're a luddite. :-)

64bit has several disadvantages I can think of:
1-poorly suited to limited RAM environments (1GB or less)
2-generally more to download at updates time
3-more storage space consumed
4-needs additional software to enable running legacy apps unavailable for 64bit

What use style none does is disable all CSS that is not internal to SeaMonkey.
That means author styles as well as any contained in your profile's chrome
directory (if any). Toggling that menu selection apparently causes a rather
complicated process.

Richard, you might wish to try an alternative to using style none on Wikipedia.
I've attached my personally created user CSS for Wikipedia. You could place it
in your profile's chrome directory (create if it does not already exist), and
call it through userContent.css (create if it does not already exist, append to
it if it does) in that same directory with this line:

Generally, whatever "font" you select is insufficient. The fontS need to be

Not clear to me. Where's the proof? Surely this must depend on:

1-broadband speed (some are many times faster than others)

2-whether one habitually restores previous session at startup

3-if restoring, number of tabs open, and depth of each

4-if restoring, number of tabs in which JS is enabled

5-if restoring, number of tabs in which content is no-cache

6-local storage speed (some is magnitudes faster than the fastest broadband)

In your profile directory: mimetypes.rdf. You can delete it while SM is closed,
and a new one will be created automatically on startup.

.rdf files can become corrupted. Deleting any corrupted can solve various 
problems.

13.1 has been out of support more than 6 months. You need to get permission to
upgrade. Known security risks have arisen since support ended.

Something to try if deleting mimetypes.rdf does not help would be switching to
another theme, from modern to default or vice versa, in Apply Theme in the View
menu.

Another would be logging into some other DE. If you are using Gnome, try IceWM,
XFCE or Plasma.

Oh were it only so simple. Over time, spec writers and developers have been
giving browsers increasingly effective power to overpower users. Extensions are
the only practical way to deal with the majority of such power.

CSS controls only appearance. Scripts control most actions, "responsive design"
CSS being the primary action exception. Other than mousetype, gray text, other
hard to use colors, and content that rearranges itself when you resize a window
that are imposed by CSS, actions (scripts) are responsible for most annoyances.
CSS is the hardest user abuse to overcome without help from any extension.

The extension NoScript disables scripts by default, and permits enabling per
site either per session or indefinitely. I've been using it in SeaMonkey too
long to remember.

Ad blocking doesn't require a script, though the AdBlock extension is popular.
The more egregious ad domains can be redirected to the bit bucket through use of
your /etc/hosts file. I've been using it since before the name SeaMonkey
replaced Mozilla Suite, and before Firefox 1.0.

Many ads can be blocked using user CSS according to the image sizes they
commonly use. http://fm.no-ip.com/Css/Share/adblock.css can be used as a
starting point if you can't find better, called by importing via
chrome/userContent.css in your SM profile.

The name seamonkey originally came from either Netscape Communicator or Netscape
before it added "Communicator" to the name. But, Netscape was followed by the
Mozilla Suite, the inception of the Mozilla Project. Firebird (later Firefox)
and Thunderbird were split off from the Suite. After that split came the
renaming of the Mozilla Suite to SeaMonkey.

Doesn't keep them totally away. Using a test profile, I deleted all bookmarks
that bookmark manager would permit. Then I closed SM, reenabled automatic import
via user.js, restarted, then deleted the three duplicate folders importing
always creates, then exported HTML. The result was 671,826 bytes vs. the 531,157
byte result of the stripping script, and the 787,654 bytes of the original 
export.

grep ICON= bookmarks.html | wc -l

on the fresh export produced 185. Doing same with the exported file I ran the
stripper against produced 311. So it looks like this exercise may ultimately be
good for some places.sqlite weight loss, but less than ideal.

Thanks much! :-D I'm close to worthless working with wildcards and special
characters, but you enabled me to come up with this mini-script:

sed 's/ ICON_URI="[^"]*"//g' $1 > $2
sed 's/ ICON="data:[^"]*"//g' $2 > $3

The result was a 32.6% total reduction, from 787,654 to 531,157. The
intermediary step size was 759,359, -3.6%.

Your reply arrived when I was almost done doing it partially via script,
partially via text editor, starting with:

sed 's/ ICON_URI=/\n ICON_URI=/g' $1 >> $2

That put each data item along with a relatively short appending string on a new
line, enabling me to quickly goto each such line, use END then cursor left to >,
hit enter, Ctrl-Y, then BS to rejoin the useful pieces of the DT item. I don't
know how long I spent, but I proceeded to finish before trying your method to
see what the difference might come out to. Mine was 526,235, 33.2% reduction,
but I took the liberty of deleting at least one duplicate DT in that process.

Deleting bookmarks then importing remains todo. I have multiple other profiles,
more than one of which need them imported too. I did already import into one FF
ESR 45 profile without doing any deletes first, via
user_pref("browser.places.importBookmarksHTML", true); in user.js. As both FF &
SM have done in the past, Recently Bookmarked and Recent Tags folders got
duplicated.

I'm not. <someinsanelylongn...@toolong.net> was a suggestion from Paul. I want
no addresses like someinsanelylongn...@toolong.net from a from-address-munged
Yahoo mailing list in any address book. When I want to mail to a mailing list I
right click a post from said list or use reply to list from menu.

Autocompletion is bizarro, putting junk from history in place of what I type as
a To address when I'm trying to compose mail that has nothing to do with any
mailing list. For now I have autocomplete disabled. I may try again after
switching to something newer than 2.46.

You still don't understand what is happening. I want a particular email address,
period. No angle brackets, no quotes, nothing but the single string required for
the SMTP, POP and/or IMAP servers to get it to the appropriate destination. Once
I get the email address I want, autocomplete finds a match from addresses
collected from Yahoo with all Yahoo's own anti-spam email list "From" field
munging, obliterating what I type. I edit the junk away, and autocomplete puts
it right back.

which is not what was originally sent, due to Yahoo's "From" munging.

It *is* wrong if it isn't what I put there intending it to stay there. It *is*
wrong to usurp what I type or paste there. I don't ever use auto-correct. I
don't need correction. If I don't make a selection from among the auto-complete
offerings, it shouldn't be forcing one.

The address gets collected from the mailing list, then at some much later time
shows up via autocomplete in a brand new composition totally unrelated to the
mailing list, because of a substring from the collected address.

It leaves it alone if I keep this autocompletion:

someinsanelylongn...@toolong.net <someinsanelylongn...@toolong.net>

or substitute

siln <someinsanelylongn...@toolong.net>

or similar, with or without use of quotes, but it overwrites with the original
autocomplete if I try to keep

someinsanelylongn...@toolong.net

Autocomplete, once it has happened in one particular address box, should make no
additional attempt once an address has been allowed to fill the field and the
popup list of possible addresses closes, unless the entire field has been
emptied (to start over). Likely this behavior needs to be filed as a bug. I
looked on BZ for something similar but found nothing. I'm not about to try
installing and using TB to see if it applies there, but hate to think about
adding more todo to our overloaded supply of SM devs with yet another SM
exclusive bug report.

FWIW, I've been using SM mail since Netscape 2, Netscape 4, Mozilla pre-1.0.
IOW, never any other email program. And, I use it a lot, hundreds of incoming

This is the root of the primary problem point of my post. Deleting from
collected is pointless because that's a busy enough mailing list that it's only
a matter of a short time until the bad ones get put back. I was hoping for some
convenient way to override on an occasional basis, something short of opening
prefs or about:config.

That's what I don't want to have to do. Autocomplete is useful, except when it
refuses to accept an override. Sometimes I want an address and only a pure
address, no kind of label, name or nick, and no quotes.

cannot override address autocomplete in plain text composition

2017-05-21 Thread Felix Miata
Linux 2.46
I never compose email except in plain text.

mail.enable_autocomplete

Most of the time I like having it true. However there are times that I want what
I want and it refuses to keep only what I type (without "<" and ">") remaining
as-is, insisting on auto-completing to auto-collected idiotic Yahoo munged
mailing list addresses I wish could be permanently forgotten, e.g.:

Felix Miata mrma...@earthlink.net [dfsee-support] 
<dfsee-supp...@yahoogroups.com>

and
'Jan van Wijk' ecomstat...@dfsee.com [dfsee-support]
<dfsee-supp...@yahoogroups.com>

As it's a collected address it will always be returned to history when an email
I sent to the list comes as a normal list email, so deleting from history is
pointless.

I tried adding the addresses manually to address book using empty First, Last
and Display, but they get discarded before I get a chance to use them a second 
time.

Does anyone know any workaround?

OK only for those who don't care that discovery of stupid sniffing is
effectively disabled by including Firefox in the UA string and thus is unlikely

In HTML composition you're normally using variable pitch fonts, which you cannot

Re: WYSIWYG printing?

save the page, edit the .html file removing any references to
media="print" stylesheets, load the saved page, print


That may not be sufficient. Individual sheets may be limited to screen media, in 
which case such limitation may need to be removed to have any CSS at all applied 
to the locally loaded page.

Screen prints can accomplish what you want, but it involves a cludge of
a process.  The problem is that you only get what is visible within the
browser window.  Thus, you must print, scroll, print some more, scroll
some more, print some more, and so on.  In this process, you must save
each screen print into an image-processing application and then print it
before scrolling to the next section of the Web page.  If you have a
truly advanced image-processing application, you might be able to stitch
together the saved images and then print them all at once as a single
large image.


Need to stitch together can be reduced by reconfiguring a Linux desktop to use a 
virtual space much taller than the physical screen (called "panning" using the 
xrandr utility to make a temporarily taller desktop space), and making the 
browser window the lesser full screen height or as tall as the page content can 
consume. How tall is possible depends on hardware, OS version and driver, but 
could be up to 32k logical px tall, but no less than 2048px tall with any 
non-ancient gfxchip.

Sounds interesting. How do I open the xpi file that is downloaded (i.e.
install the program)?



You do not open it.  You download it.


I download it to disk. Then I open it (File -> Open), same as if opening a 
locally saved .txt or .html file. Verified this method works same as it did well 
over a decade ago, on Win10 with SM 2.48, Chatzilla 0.9.93 and Theme Font Size 
Changer 50.0.

Turned on the computer this morning. At first all seemed normal, but
when the notice of new e-mails came up it had changed to a tiny type
face. Found that the tool bars on the top of the screen, and all e-mail
screens, had changed. However, the content of opened messages had not
changed, nor had anything else in SM.



What the heck happened? Any ideas about the cause or a solution? All
ideas gratefully accepted.


Using the SM from which you typed this message?

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:49.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/49.0 
SeaMonkey/2.46


Or, is it on a Linux PC that just got some updates? If so, which Linux distro 
and version, and using which WM or DE? What DPI and screen resolution are 
reported if you load http://fm.no-ip.com/Auth/dpi-screen-window.html in SeaMonkey?

Sometimes I used email to show an existing web page and the expected web
page it should be with my modifications - in that case HTML mail is
essential !


That's hardly a "most users" use case, or even essential. When I want to do 
that, I email only a URI, and put the content on my "web site", which is 
actually the same local location in which I construct the modified page. That 
way the content only needs to be read if and when the recipient wishes it seen 
rather than accounting for its space consumed overhead every time an email app 
opens the folder containing that message. I commit only my own storage space. 
Recipient commits space only if and when he chooses. When the email destination 
is a mailing list, your technique takes a many magnitudes bigger total storage 
and bandwidth consumption toll.

Why your newspaper is not in plain-text ?



What's a newspaper?



Use the first link found -> http://lmgtfy.com/?q=Newspaper wikipedia


It was a joke. Emails aren't newspapers. Newspapers are comprised of many 
subjects and many pages. Rarely is an email or news post more than a paragraph 
or three or five. Those text size and font variations newspapers use rarely have 
applicability in the context of small text bodies. Individual articles in 
newspapers usually and for good reason use only one size and style. Most HTML 
email users don't use any rich text features even if and when appropriate, 
making the HTML markup and CSS styling pure useless bloat.
