Re: What happens next?
Re: What happens next? Again I ask, is Seamonkey Ubiquitous like Firefox? No. Is Seamonkey offered, exposed, shown to users as an option when they view Linux Package alternatives in the software/application package repo/kiosk after the install process? Seldom it seems.

I don't think that SeaMonkey is suitable for every user. The trend is to dumb down software and unless the interface is simple and the program does everything right you would just be flooded with support tickets. Looking aorund I see people even more helpless than 20 years before when they have a problem. So SM will probably stay as a niche browser for power usewrs. I am sure you are correct about Seamonkey not being for everybody! No application is for everybody! That is the beauty of Linux compared to MS Windows, and all the possible applications we have access to in Linux, more often than not. Yet Seamonkey is hidden to most everybody loading Ubuntu - the prime Linux spearhead for years now, and others like Mint, Debian, Fedora, ..., and recently I now see SUSE is coming up to the top ten installed packages(I thank the post for the info; from another thread fork). I missed reviewing SUSE recently as I did not like it 5-6 years ago, and so did not find it had Seamonkey in the repo/kiosk. I thank the other poster here for enlightening me on SUSE, I missed it. Yet the issue remains; Seamonkey is still basically hidden. Seamonkey is far easier to use than Firefox and Thunderbird, from my experience, and from other People I correspond with. Both FF and TB cause me to stumble, it's irritating. Seamonkey is more natural somehow, easier to use, and People I know agree. It is far more capable too. Firefox is missing too much of what SM offers. One guy I know tossed his Acer Aspire 5050 AMD Turion 64 computer in the trash over FF and webmail pages, refused to even look further. I use it now - this is it talking to you with Ubuntu Mate 18.04 LTS and Seamonkey 2.49.5! The guy now uses an LG Tracfone for everything, his wife suffers an MS Windows mess she hates. So agitated were they I was unable to get them to even look at Linux nor anything else. Damage done. They are now Dvoid Google-Android users - mostly.

The Apps play store routine is easier for them. With all due respect for the developers of Seamonkey, and I truly appreciate their work, especially since I have not needed to replace a profile now for 3 years, Seamonkey will not be more widely known of, installed, and used until it is easier for more People to learn of it, locate it in a repository/kiosk, press an install button, and use it. Seamonkey exists not in any Ubuntu, Debian, nor Red Hat/Fedora repository I checked out, nor any other Linux package. I find it at SeamonkeyProject.org, and Sourceforge via Ubuntuzilla: https://sourceforge.net/p/ubuntuzilla/wiki/Main_Page/ Few People can handle the download, install, setup requirements as it is, even if they find it at the SeamonkeyProject, or Sourceforge. Few People can handle the terminal. And they like the Android/Apple play store concept on their fone. Many People are ditching a computer and just use a tablet or large fone for everything. Is Seamonkey available for a fone like Firefox is, or tablet? No. I hate and don't trust that Dvoid junk so I keep Linux and Seamonkey on a laptop. v2.49.5 seems to be working great on an old Acer Aspire 5050 w-AMD Turion 64 I acquired; I loaded it with several Ubuntu packages, and a Fedora Mate, until I settled on Ubuntu Mate 18.04 LTS for the AMD X86_64, so far User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:52.0) Gecko/20100101 SeaMonkey/2.49.5; Though Youtube is now flashing me that "We'll stop supporting this browser soon.

It should be as readily available as Firefox and others, more so in my mind - being the greater browser it is. I don't like and won't use Firefox for several reasons; though I am playing around with the fork to Pale Moon, it is too limiting for me, but better than Firefox for sure. And I avoid anything Microsoft or Google. I hope nothing from either of those thieving junk shops is found in Seamonkey!

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. This is where real working solutions are found; user forums providing ref from users of hardware, OSs, and application software like Seamonkey. And what works is important, yet what does not work is important too; what needs avoided, what does not mix.

Re: IMAP (was Re: NoSquint For SeaMonkey) Ant wrote: ... IMAP can do all POP can do, plus a lot more. So why bother with POP? Especially a bad one. To me, IMAP is dang slow compared to POP3. I usually download my emails to my local desktop. Synchronizing with the IMAP server is slow. I am spoiled by POP3 and SMTP without their synchronizations. :( Again, whatever works best for you! Matching ISP email servers email client software helps! Not all work well together. I changed email servers email client packages numerous times over the years. Even tried webmail seriously several times. Yuck! It does not help to compare an overloaded or bad IMAP server to a fast POP server, or a bad IMAP implementation / setup / design to a reasonably well made setup POP server. Any server may be slow for many reasons, not because it is IMAP or POP. I doubt under a competent test that a true IMAP is any slower than a true POP for email transfer, under duplicate conditions. I suspect they compare equally. Email client software makes a big difference too! Some email packages are not coded well to handle both POP IMAP. They are coded well to handle one much better than the other. For example: I would recommend to never use UofWash Pine/Alpine email client for any POP server, as it is known to be poorly coded for POP; it is an imitation POP code UofWash wrote. But Pine/Alpine screams under true IMAP use. I love that email package - it is fast - no graphics to slow you down loading reading high volumes of email! Fast with many IMAP folders open to jump around to. Interfaces well with a graphical browser for inline or attachments. It mimes HTML fairly well. Yet connected to a bad (proprietary) IMAP server design like Gmail or Hotmail it crumbles with all kinds of problems, because Pine/Alpine is RFC compliant - not a hack job. Complaints to the Pine/Alpine support forums continue over over for the same old Gmail Hotmail problems. Seamonkey / Mozilla can handle Gmail Hotmail (POP or IMAP servers) far better than Pine/Alpine, if those servers are so important to the user to keep them. Sylpheed seems to be a good email client package too, but I cannot claim much experience with it. And for Gmail POP IMAP servers Sylpheed offers special setup selections. Gee I wonder why? Could GMail be something other than IMAP RFC compliant? Like Proprietary? I would not blame POP for being a slow design, but it often is slow for me - using Seamonkey or otherwise, for some reason (whether Inbox.com or Yahoo.com, I used numerous other POPs over the years). All email servers I ever used, dozens, periodically were slow. I suspect email servers by the work they are expected to do are inherently slow. They all are often under tremendous work loads. Time of day makes a big difference too! And worse with POP, if the server connection breaks - I often found no recovery, start over transferring all msgs. If that doesn't slow you down tick you off nothing will! I never find POP to be useful for me! Just good for testing out setups, quick mail checking - but not downloading, etc. The fastest best overall system I found is Alpine running on Fastmail.fm, an IMAP system. I don't think Fastmail operates a POP server. They broke away from Opera Browser now, so no more nonsense! But, Use what works best for you!

Complaint: Folders Bookmarks lost in the Seamonkey Bookmark system, lost in folder hierarchy, is a problem for years. Many users know it. But then I find the Seamonkey Bookmark system a bigger mess than it was prior to the Firefox Bookmark system being added. The older Seamonkey Bookmark system, that was initially updated from the Mozilla Suite - where Seamonkey came from, was superior in many ways, not so damned clumsy anyway! The original Seamonkey group did very well solving problems, updating making the old Mozilla Suite better. Where did they go? Firefox is a mess the Bookmark system is the worst of it. That is why I ditched Firefox when it first appeared for Windows XP. And then, as I switched to Ubuntu in 2012 - I trashed the Firefox they included with the package, installed Seamonkey. I returned to Mozilla/Seamonkey quickly after trying Firefox! Irrelevant for now... Solution: Anybody looking for a stored but lost folder or bookmark, lost in the Seamonkey Bookmark folder hierarchy, can find it using the bookmark manager search feature, then find the folder where it is - using this procedure, correct their missing link: 1) In the Bookmark Manager, Search to find missing bookmark; Then; 2) Click on the missing bookmark(online or offline - irrelevant); 3) Once the page loads or errors from being offline, right click the page select Bookmark This Page; 4) A small window will open offering to Edit This Bookmark; 5) See to the right of the Folder: entry a small square with an arrow, click it to open / expose the full folder hierarchy below, where the missing folder / bookmark is stored; 6) Scroll down to locate the highlighted bookmark folder name, the hierarchy of folders is exposed; 7) Now you know where the missing folder / bookmark is, in which folder - full hierarchy! Leave it there to use, or move it, - your choice! Obviously a better way is needed. Full hierarchy needs to be included openly in the Bookmark manager like the creation visit date is. Maybe when Properties is opened. That may be harder than its seems though, program code required. But for now...I hope this helps too. If it does not - let me know.
