Jim check out this site: http://www.mozilla.org/community/etiquette.html These ground rules to the Mozilla Newsgroups In particular: Do not send binary attachments, including screen shots, and especially including screen shots of textual dialog boxes. Many people read these messages through slow network connections; try to be respectful of them. If you have a large file that you would like to distribute, put it on a Web page and announce the URL instead of attaching it. The only exception is mozilla.support.screenshots. and Keep in mind that not everyone uses mail or news readers that can easily display HTML messages. Consequently, you will reach a larger audience if you post in plain-text. Many people simply ignore HTML messages, because it takes a nontrivial amount of effort to read them. HTML posts in mozilla.support.screenshots are allowed. You cannot insert an image or attach an image. Out of respect to others, post using plain text not html. Hope this helps.

I have no explanation for this, it seems to happen, very seldom, randomly. My opinion is, it has nothing to do with the size of the Inbox (although I strongly agree with what others said about keeping it of a reasonable size, if only to minimize risks) or of the email, but with the way the email is displayed. There are probably multiple possible causes to this and I am there clearly out of my depth.

Once this question is answered; I'll get off the list and leave it to the PC only crowd. Upgrade to SM 2.0.a3. ;) I only say that, because that is the only thing that solved the same problem for me. I opened SeaMonkey one afternoon, and was greeted with the account wizard. I clicked out of it, and my accounts were there, but there was this bizarre rogue News account, exactly as you describe. I removed the account using Mail Newsgroup Account Settings, but it reappeared the next time I started SeaMonkey. I clsed SeaMonkey and removed the News folder in the, well News folder of the profile. It came back as soon as I restarted. I combined the two operations. It came back. I am quite sure that the change to the alpha was what did it so much as the fact that it creates a new profile. You could probably create a new profile and migrate your data from the old to the new. I am quite sure that would fix it, but I was going to test the alpha anyway, so what the heck. Fortunately, 2.0 has progressed to the point that zI can use it as a day to day browser and mail/news/rss client quite comfortably. The funny thing about the rogue account was that it was functional. I could subscribe to groups and read them. However, When I cloised and reopened, they would all be gone. So I suggest three options; 1) Just live with it. It doesn't cause any problem, other then being annoying. 2) Create a new profile, test to make sure its okay, then migrate your data. 3) Try the alpha. Option 1 might be the best course until 2.0 hits beta. There are still some glitches, though I can attest that its going to be agreat product. By the way, this funny News account only appeared on my gracefully aging iMac G5. My Intel Macbook has been just fine.

This works for me on the occasions the same has happened. Margaret I've tried removing from Accounts in accounts the quit and remove all traces of anything to with *news* only in in the News folder in profile folder; rc files, folders and of course the .msf files anything to do news only. There is something Preference.js file that supposed to generate the new item but it supposed to have nothing in it and allow for you to put in a sever name then and only then is it supposed to show up. Sorry can't help with Preference.js file, that's beyond my 'troubleshooting tinkering'.

I've tried to figure out what components in the Pref.js file to to delete. I've tried figuring out using both a text editor or the built in config editor.

Once this question is answered; I'll get off the list and leave it to the PC only crowd. Upgrade to SM 2.0.a3. ;) I only say that, because that is the only thing that solved the same problem for me. I opened SeaMonkey one afternoon, and was greeted with the account wizard. I clicked out of it, and my accounts were there, but there was this bizarre rogue News account, exactly as you describe. I removed the account using Mail Newsgroup Account Settings, but it reappeared the next time I started SeaMonkey. I clsed SeaMonkey and removed the News folder in the, well News folder of the profile. It came back as soon as I restarted. I combined the two operations. It came back. I am quite sure that the change to the alpha was what did it so much as the fact that it creates a new profile. You could probably create a new profile and migrate your data from the old to the new. I am quite sure that would fix it, but I was going to test the alpha anyway, so what the heck. Fortunately, 2.0 has progressed to the point that zI can use it as a day to day browser and mail/news/rss client quite comfortably. The funny thing about the rogue account was that it was functional. I could subscribe to groups and read them. However, When I cloised and reopened, they would all be gone. So I suggest three options; 1) Just live with it. It doesn't cause any problem, other then being annoying. 2) Create a new profile, test to make sure its okay, then migrate your data. 3) Try the alpha. Option 1 might be the best course until 2.0 hits beta. There are still some glitches, though I can attest that its going to be agreat product. By the way, this funny News account only appeared on my gracefully aging iMac G5. My Intel Macbook has been just fine. Lee This happened to me and I have 1.1.4--happened all the sudden just as you state. I have removed it with remove account and have removed the folder with Seamonkey closed and it just comes back the next time I start Seamonkey. I have not changed version since I installed 1.1.4 when it came out. It happened about a month ago. Weired -- You either teach people to treat you with dignity and respect, or you don't.
