What I'm hoping to do is to be able to insert frequently-used text snippets 
into an email, and also in a Composer document.  I'd love to be able to get 
word count for Composer, but I don't think I'm going to get that.  The ability

Frustration with Seamonkey

2015-02-13 Thread Jeffrey Needle
I really want to use Seamonkey on a regular basis.  One thing keeps me 
from doing this.


In Thunderbird, when I press the A key while reading mail, the message 
is deleted from my message list, but placed in the All Mail folder in 
gmail.  This is precisely what I want to do.  But there is no such 
facility in Seamonkey.  If it's based on the Mozilla code used in 
Thunderbird, why on earth can't I get this done?


It seems like such an odd thing to have omitted.  I'd love to know if 
this is planned for the future.


Thanks.

I am a touch-typist who really hates going to the mouse to do common

I have no experience with the portable version of SeaMonkey but my guess
is you should create your userChrome.css in the same location you've
found:

E:\Portable\SeaMonkeyPortable\Data\profile\chrome\userChrome-example.css

Be sure to copy userChrome.css-example.css to userChrome.css as
initial version, then add to it, as it contains important @namespace
rule you should not omit.



Well, it didn't work when I tried the location suggested.  I tried the 
other two as well, and no luck.


Of course, I'm a complete novice when it comes to customizing Seamonkey

Did I do this wrong?  I copied and pasted the following into the

Things you may check out:

* Be sure to create userChrome.css and not userContent.css (both
serve different purposes);
* Make sure the file is named exactly userChrome.css and not
userChrome.css.txt, for example;
* Make sure you edit and save the userChrome.css content using a plain
text editor like Notepad (I guess you could use Wordpad, too).


Of course, I'm a complete novice when it comes to customizing Seamonkey

I can't really say about the portable version of SeaMonkey, but reading
some info on the portable version of Firefox it should be really like
that:

http://portableapps.com/support/firefox_portable#local_profile

See if any of this could help. The userChrome.css rules are otherwise
working for me using the normal SeaMonkey version, and Barry Edwin

Nope.  Nothing works.  Perhaps it's a limitation of the portable build?

click on a contact in the address book? When I open the address book

Nope.  When I go to my address book, the first entry in the list

Part of that display is the Notes field.  I would like to copy and paste

I am a book review editor and assign books to reviewers.  I always need 
to send the reviewer's name and address to a publisher to they can send 
the book to the reviewer.  Because of this, I put the name and address 
in the Notes field, for easy copying and pasting into the e-mail to the 
publisher.

When I go to my address book, the first entry in the list displays

that display is the Notes field. I would like to copy and paste the
Notes display from the main Address Book screen.


Try adding the following rules to your userChrome.css [1]:

@-moz-document

 My goodness.

I'm using the portable version of Seamonkey.  I can find three example 
files, here:


E:\Portable\SeaMonkeyPortable\App\DefaultData\profile\chrome\userChrome-example.css
E:\Portable\SeaMonkeyPortable\App\SeaMonkey\defaults\profile\chrome\userChrome-example.css
E:\Portable\SeaMonkeyPortable\Data\profile\chrome\userChrome-example.css

but no userChrome.css.  I'm guessing I'll have to create the file 
myself.  No problem.  But where do I create it?


I'm very grateful for your good help!

A couple of other thoughts and tips;

The SM composer does a great job with copy/paste from a number of
sources... for example, copy excel contents or other office tables and
they will convert into good html tables.

You can use the SM web page composer to pre-prepare complex message
templates... that interface gives you more tools and options than the
html composer in the email client, then simply copy all from the
composer, and paste into a message template.

While Office and other programs can generate html output, they generated
huge amounts of useless junk html code in the background source code,
so, copy paste has a distinct advantage over importing html generated
by those sources.

Thanks -- I hadn't thought of that!  Admittedly, I don't use Composer 
for much.  Maybe this is my chance to learn more about it.

Maybe you want to try and use Seamonkeys built-in Mail-part for gmail
then? (and any other email-provider you might be using)
It's kinda similar in usage concerning folders etc.

Window = MailNewsgroups or press Ctrl+2
Create a new account with the new account wizard using this data:
http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hlrm=deanswer=13287
And don't forget to make sure that POP or IMAP is enabled in your google

For IMAP instead of POP3:

http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hlrm=deanswer=78892

I guess it's easier for you to setup POP, but IMAP offers you to have
all mails synchronized in SM and in the webmail interface at any time,
so decide what you need/prefer. :-)

Yes, I use SM's mail client for my gmail account. I was looking for a
way to read my gmail on the server and not download anything. I hate
gmail's native interface.


So use IMAP and choose leave mail on server until I move or delete it.
To read it you have to download it, your choices are POP, IMAP, or HTML.
But you don't have to keep it, allowing you to read from several
machines without losing the mail.



That's not where the problem is.  There's too much handling to do -- 
especially when a thread has gone on for a while, and you have to figure 
out if you've read the entries in the thread or not.  And so much 
monkeying around with the message list.


Nah, I'll stay with the POP server and continue to download the posts to SM.

How do you backup your SM emails?

The freeware program Mozbackup should do the job.  I haven't tried it 
because I use the portable Seamonkey build.  I can really just copy the 
changed files to my USB stick, which I use for backup purposes.


Another freeware program, Karen's Replicator, does the backup task for me.

It's the Better Gmail you mention.  It won't work with SM, as far as I

Unfortunately, no.  I have to see what the interfaces do to know if it's
