If you define broadband like the German government, it's still an important part of the browser for some people. ;-) regards Last time I checked, less than a year ago, approximately 40% of US users ( including me ;) are still on dialup. It's hard to judge, because broadband penetration statistics divide the number of broadband access points by the total population, not by the number of Internet users. US stats for December 2008 were around 25% by that measure, but how many users had access to each line? And what proportion of the population isn't online at all? http://www.oecd.org/dataoecd/21/35/39574709.xls As for speeds, OECD includes anything over 256 kbit/s, which is a pretty low cutoff but does exclude dial-ups. http://www.oecd.org/document/46/0,3343,en_2649_34225_39575598_1_1_1_1,00.html More info here: http://www.oecd.org/document/54/0,3343,en_2649_34225_38690102_1_1_1_1,00.html Interesting links. Motivation to see if I can find again the article I remembered. Were measurement methods different or was the article more dated than I thought. There's a subtle trap for software developers - assuming that their setup being 'nothing special' is not only 'normal' _BUT_ *THE NORM* I wouldn't call it so much a trap for SW developers -- they don't suffer if they get it wrong, we do. Typically they write for high-end systems, driving innovation as users demand better performance from manufacturers and ISPs. A minority will write for low-end systems in the interest of broader market penetration. I think the traps more subtle. For example, top of line systems are so big and/or fast that the problem may not be observed. Is all this bandwidth needed or is does it cover up other problems? ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Filters for newsgroups [Usenet]
Is there any chance SM will ever have a message filter in the future, that will block crossposting, as we could with the old Netscape programs? Or is there an add on that will do that, like Fix News did for Netscape? Some newsgroups are just impossible to keep up with, because of spammers cross posting, and constantly changing their addresses. Of course it's always worse in the summer, when all the kiddies have too much time on their hands. :) bj ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

A personal preference (with a nod toward non-lock-in standards): The longer you keep files in proprietary formats, the less useful the files are. (Think: Export to .DXF.) Is there a way to add to the helper the use of the visio.exe program when double-clicking it (email attachment) ? With M$'s track record regarding the 'Net (first ignoring it then trying to cripple it thru incompatibility), it's a wonder ANYTHING they produce works in an online mode.

In SM have a look at Edit-MailNewsgroup Account Settings, select your mail account, then have a look at the bottom of the Server Settings screen for the location of your Local Directory. Close this screen, then in SM select Tools-Switch Profiles and note how many profiles you have. Are there more than you would expect?? Try selecting each of the profiles. Is there one that you are not allowed into?? If so, completely close SeaMonkey (including the Quick Launch feature if you use it) and then give the three-finger salute (Ctrl-Alt-Del) and if SeaMonkey is still listed in the running processes, End it. Exit the C-A-D screen. Re-start SM, and try and select the profile that you couldn´t get to before. Does it work, and are your lost bookmarks listed?? Report back if this doesn´t work!!
