Re: custom filesystem folders

Let's call it here important-mail. The important-mail folder MUST NOT be located under the Local Folders folder which is accessible from the mail client interface but must be accessible from the folder pane in the same way we access our usual folders. Thus, saving email messages in the filesystem should be a simple drag drop operation instead of a boring File/Save as/etc. Also reading messages should be simpler then reading a saved message since I don't have to open them by going through the File menu, but will be enough to click on important-mail folder and then on the message subject. Solutions for Seamonkey on MS Windows are welcomed too. regards cristi First of all thank you for the reply. If I'm understanding you right, you can right click on your email address and add a new folder. I have two: Temp and Keepers. Porbably I didn't explain very well. I have lots of folders but all of them are on the IMAP server and of course, I can copy/move messages between them. I do not have problems creating folders on the server. My problem is creating folders on my filesystem. And I want these folders to behave like those on the server. The perfect example of such a folder (and of what I want) is the Local folders folder which is stored on my machine filesystem and which is accessible from the folder pane. Can I create another folder similar to Local folders which is not stored under Local folders? I drag emails about orders etc into Temp until the order is received. Keepers is for later archiving as .txt or .eml files on another hard drive. regards cristi In addition to what Christian described, let me add: Each account (POP, IMAP and also 'Local Folder') has it's own file location where the mail collection is stored, it's basically a plain file (WIN-wise)). The dark side is: you can have one one file location per account. The bright side is, you can place for each account the file onto a different WIN-dir. And I have placed all folders into a structure like this: D:\_Mozilla\TB_gW\Profiles\gW\Mail\ -- my pop accounts D:\_Mozilla\TB_gW\Profiles\gW\ImapMail\ -- my imap accounts D:\_Mozilla\TB_gW\mailFolder\local\ -- my local folder You see you can place it anywhere on the (WIN) PC. Now, if you want to store your important-mail to a very separate location, you define a dummy account. Place the folder location onto eg. 'F:\myimportantmails'. How to do: I'm using TB, but SM should be similar: this setting is at 'View seetings of the account', go to 'Server setting' .. there you have Local directory .. use [Browse ... ] ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
Re: SM 1.1.4 Crash and/or Stall on d/l e-mail

The real challenge is still the crashing of SM 1.1.14 when down loading e-mails. Close the program. Go to your profile and delete the .msf file for your Inbox. Next time your start the program and access you mail, it will rebuild your Inbox. Change the defaults to your liking (deleting the .msf file will wipe out any customized settins you've made) and go from there. See if that helps. B/ Brian, Thank you for the suggestion. I have done as indicated and now I Am getting multiple duplicates of e-mails in one pass and as well, there are times when the messages will not open and SM closes down. I Am at a loss here...

When you create a second (machine) User account, the new user can launch any App loaded on the machine and it starts up in a virgin state, and they can customize it as they please. This works for FF, Camino, iTunes, Safari... But SM doesn't work! It brings up a funny old style looking window with a bottom pane saying parsing error and there are no functions across the menu bar. It's totally blank. Anyone know why this is? No clue. What version of SM? We have never seen that with any of the 1.1.x releases, nor the 2.0ax releases. 1.1.14 (I never tried it before with any earlier versions.)
