One of the sites I was told to go for help says to disable the use of a PROXY SERVER Click the radio button labeled No proxy. Click OK twice. This will remove the proxy server settings in Firefox. I presume that goes for SeaMonkey also(?) I looked up what a 'proxy server' isis it necessary to use one when on the web in SM 2.6.1 ? Not at all. Depending on my ISP, at various times I've used/not used proxies and SM never cared either way. You can set this for the whole system through Control Panel | Internet Options | Connections | LAN Settings, but SM also has an override function at Edit | Preferences | Advanced | Proxies where you can accept the system settings or not. It is not whether SeaMonkey cares or not - does using a Proxy open up one's computer to being invaded more easily ? Is using a Proxy like using a servant of the oldest profession on Earth and almost surely getting a Virus ? Who/What is the Proxy ? - Who/Whatever is next in line ? What MASTER does the Proxy answer to ? Is the Proxy loaded with viruses, worms, Trojans, rootkits, dialers, spyware, and malware of every kind ? How do you know ? Who do you call ? Ghostbusters ? lol DoctorBill A proxy is a sort-of beefed-up firewall. It works like this: *-a firewall prevents unaithorised/attacking traffic getting to you by denying/ignoring it, but your web request traffic in/out is still your traffic. Your request traffic goes through the firewall out to the web, and the answers are allowed back in to your PC. *-a proxy is still a firewall as regards attacking traffic, but it impersonates your PC on the internet for your traffic, which means the internet thinks the proxy is the PC asking for the web page. Your request traffic goes to the proxy, the proxy requests the web page. The proxy receives the answer traffic back, checks it over, and then relays back to your PC after deciding that it's safe to do so. The differences are down to how the internet traffic is handled, going out and coming back in. It's not less secure, it's more secure. But most home-based routers with firewalls built-in are just firewalls as opposed to proxys. If you haven't bought one and set it up, or had someone set it up for you, you haven't got a proxy. As previously posted, there is more than one way to configure the traffic, if you need to. OK - now I AM confused I do not have a firewall set up - unless XP has one from MicroSoft. (?) Never bought one. I use AVG Free as a virus checker. How much money can one spend to buy a Firewall, a virus checker, a Maleware Program, etc, etc, etc ? If I toggle the use of a Proxy on Preferences | Advanced | Proxies, then a Proxy is assigned to me by some unknown 'whatever' - yes? I mean - where or how is this Proxy set up - by some random internet process in some unknown place ? China, Russia, Uzbekistan, Pakistan ?

Sorry to say it, but the tabs in SeaMonkey 2.2 browser just aren't up to

The active tab needs to be highlighted with a different color, so it's easy
to see. Firefox accomplishes this by making the active tab lighter, which
works fine. If there's any difference in SeaMonkey, I can't see it with my
CRT monitor. I realize that LCD monitors render grayscales better, but
SeaMonkey should take that into consideration. I've looked through the
settings and can't find any way to fix this, so presume it's built-in(?).
Apparently the only way to close a tab in SeaMonkey with the mouse is to
click the little x at the rightside of the tab bar, but it's too small to
hit easily quickly with the mouse pointer. Also that's much less
satisfactory than having an x on each tab. Without an x on each tab, it's
necessary to first select a tab then click the x. Very cumbersome. Or am I
overlooking something obvious as a newbie? Yes, I'm aware of the keyboard
shortcuts affecting tabs, but I normally use a mouse for these operations.
Add to your userChrome.css:
.tabbrowser-tab[selected=true] hbox,
.tabbrowser-tab[selected=true] .tab-close-button {
background-color: #88 !important;
color: #fff !important;
}
.tabbrowser-tab[selected=true]:hover hbox,
.tabbrowser-tab[selected=true]:hover .tab-close-button {
background-color: #BB !important;
color: #fff !important;
}
This will hilite the active tab to blue. Dunno about making the X any
larger.
I tried this on 2.0.14 and it works a treat!
It's nice to have experts around. Thanks Jay!

I followed the desktop shortcut found the seamonkey.exe file was 0 bytes! (see: http://pages.sbcglobal.net/bjweiss/SMfolder.jpg ) What's going on. How could Seamonkey get uninstalled or corrupted? Did it try and automatically upgrade itself? Can I recover from this or do I need to try a new install? Thanks in advance for any insight on this. ...Brian Interesting, are you running an AV application that may think it was a virus and removed the .exe file or rendered it useless? I have Symantec AV which does a small scan on reboot and maybe monitors email. (I'm not at my home computer right now so I'm not sure of the edition or settings). I also have Malwarebytes SUPERAntiSpyware (both are free versions, that have to be initiated manually). ...Brian I have the Pro version of SAS and I removed the trial of MWB but I've never had anything like this happen at any time. Thanks for the info. After checking my home laptop, I have Symantec AV Corporate Edition (ver 10). I checked the logs, etc. -- nothing in Quarantine, etc. (set to do a Quick Scan on computer Startup. SAS MWB: SAS last scan activity, November, 2010. MWB: Last activity, March, 2010. So I don't think any of these programs are the culprit. Fortunately, I still have Seamonkey version 1.1.9 on two other computers, so I still can extract some of the saved emails profile/newsgroup info. I'm hesitant to go ahead and do a new re-install of seamonkey 2 on this (WindowsXT,SP3) laptop at this point in time (of which I have none!

Also, even to post to this group I have to VPN RDP to my work desktop (after rebooting the DSL modem one or more times...). Sorry for the rant... I've been using seamonkey because of the multiple profile feature (I started with Netscape Communicator, years ago...) ...Brian -- I have not had any recent problems, but I keep a copy of the Mozilla (Now Seamonkey) files from the programs directory. I just copy the whole thing to the D drive. Also the Seamonkey files from Documents Settings. Then if Seamonkey goes tits up I just re-install then copy the backup files over the new install files.

Just wondering. We need stable mail/news code to base our release on, and those parts are largely in control of the Thunderbird team. As they have been pushing out their Thunderbird 3 release recently, the same happened to the mail/news stabilization points, which means that we need to postpone the SeaMonkey 2 release as well. I hope we will have better estimations in terms of dates soon, but a first Beta release of SeaMonkey 2 should be available within a few weeks, the final release sometime this summer.

Unable to download 2.0a3
I have tried to dl the new Seamonkey alpha in the past couple of days. It seems to download fine for about 95% then aborts. Tried from two sites and even tried with IE, no dice. Any advice? I did download the zipped file but don't know what to do with it. It unzips to all the files, but does not seem to have an installer. -- Gerald Ross Cochran, GA La Quinta is Spanish for Next to Dennys ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Re: custom filesystem folders
Cristian Zoicas wrote: Hello all, I use SeaMonkey 1.1.12 on Ubuntu Linux and I want to get the following behaviour from the SeaMonkey mail client: Some of the mail messages I receive I want to save them in a custom folder in my home directory. 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 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. 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. -- Gerald Ross Cochran, GA Detour: The roughest distance between two points. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
