 Yes, port 25 into and out of the Charter network is blocked for 
 residential customers.

 It is not blocked internal to Charter's network, allowing full
 access to the Charter SMTP server.

 This means that you cannot run your own SMTP server or access the
 SMTP servers of other ISPs on port 25 from inside the Charter
 network.

 Either use Charter's SMTP server or determine what alternate (and 
 secure) ports are available for your use on your alternate ISP.

Most dialogs are the same (luckily), that setting can be found in
SM2.0b1 there too like you described. :-)

Must have been a temporary server issue, I tried about 7 times even
without ad-blockers etc. no chance, but now it's fine...

Back to the error-message: that looks like the classic
tabbrowser-extensions-error to me. Got them installed?
Only a restart of SM without re-loading the tab-session can fix this.

I'm using the tabbrowser extensions myself in SM1.1.x although they are
officially abandoned and the author warns on his site that they're
unstable. (when opening hundreds of tabs, they will often crash and
moving tabs with the mouse constantly gives me this kind of error when
trying to close a certain tab afterwards, I tend to not move tabs with
the mouse anymore)
A shame that tabmixplus doesn't work for SM ;-(

Try to delete the file localstore.rdf in your profile*, SM will forget

It's in the Seamonkey Preferences, Advanced => Scripts&Plugins

If there's a site which wants to prevent you from downloading a picture
or similar by right-clicking or so, just turn it off again.
For google maps it needs to be allowed.

It's probably a good idea to just "update" the existing installation then.
As the major-Version didn't change this shouldn't be much of a problem.

If you define "broadband" like the German government, it's still an

I'm not 100% sure for SM1.1.x but I think there's also this button in

*Argh* This is awful.
Try to rename your old profile in the profile-manager after copying it.

This is correct, the default locaton is on C: of course (at least as
long as your "documents and settings"-directory is there.
So you can
- move that entire docs&settings directory to D: or F: or whtever
- edit the profiles.ini as you said
- use the profile-manager (tools-menu in SM and in the windows
start-menu also) of SM to create a profile wherever you want after
installing it.

Tried with a new profile? Do that first.

Which version of Firefox? Firefox2 is the same engine as Seamonkey1.1.x
If you compared to Firefox3, then you should know that this is the
engine Seamonkey2.0 uses.
So if a new profile doesn't help, maybe give Seamonkey2.0 beta1 a try.
It will work besides your SM1 installation.

Yes of course. :-)
Open Edit => Preferences, then select Mail&Newsgroups. There should be
an option namd "Composing" or similar. You can select to forward
messages inline or as attachment. Your choice wouldbe "inline" then.

Is it WindowsMedia Format? => Windows Media-Player
Quicktime?
Real..?
etc.
Seamonkey only uses the browser-plugins of those programs, it does not
play the content itsself.

Why should TB not ignore the moz-profile? My guess would be that it does.
If you have proven the opposite, just rename/move the moz-profile during
TB installation so that it creaes it's own profile in the thunderbird
directory and then move/rename it moz-profile back.

Seamonkey should look where the profile is by looking where SM1 stored
the profile not by guessing the location to the default one.
I always have my profile on a D: drive and the migration found it, too.
(although I hve to admit I didn't start the migration wizard manually to
import several profiles like that)

 I have installed and uninstalled B1 three times and cannot open the
 "Import Wizard" at all on install NO 2 and No 3. It did show up on
 the first install. Apparently the uninstall (Windows XP remove) is
 leaving some thing in some folder somewhere that is preventing the
 "Import Wizard" from running at all on Installs No 2 or No 3.

So have you tried to use
"C:\Program Files\SeaMonkey\seamonkey.exe" -P "SM2profile" -migration
as suggested?

I'm unsure how this is possible.
Does this happen too when you create a secondary Seamonkey profile and

If you don't want to re-create all accounts and copy their files back
into the newly created profile directories, you have two choices in my eyes:
1) create the required number of profiles and replace the whole content
of each *.slt directory wih the data of one old account.
2) an app like MozBackup might be handy: http://mozbackup.jasnapaka.com/

btw. there are newer documents about the profile ;-)

Please paste that file into your Seamonkey profile directory, not into
the seamonkey program.
This is just a normal file-copy-command within windows explorer. So no
Seamonkey interaction is needed at that point.

There is no known maximum to me and I have quite a few bookmarks.
Do you have (lost) write access to that file/folder where bookmarks.htm
is located?
Is the html-fil stil valid? (maybe corrupted by file-system faults?)

What happens when you change the location of your bookmark-file by
setting the brower.bookmarks.file in about:config to another location?
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.bookmarks.file
Is that file usable then?

Just for completeness:
For Vista and Win7 it's C:\Users\%USERPROFILE%\Application Data\... and

A Profile is the entire thing which stores all settings/preferences
which you might set by the GUI (concerning Browser and News/Emails etc).
It also contains all Email- and Newsgroupaccounts.
Every profile may contain as many Email- and Newsgroupaccounts as the
user wishes to.
You can backup and restore your profile entirely to any Seamonkey 1.1.x
installation at any time (at least while SM is closed ;-) ).

Those you don't know about are probably just leftovers from accounts
which...um..."I don't know what happened to them" ;-) (except Local
Folders of course).
Feel free to test that by removing one folder after another from that
profile-directory and starting Seamonkey each time you have removed one.
As long as everything is at it's place you're just removing trash and so
you can delete that stuff which you have successfully take out and you
therefore probably don't need.

Yes you can cut and paste the folders (each folder is represented by a
file, the one without .msf as you already found out :-) ) to another
account. It doesn't matter if this account lies in the same profile or
not. (I guess in your case all accounts are in one profile)
Easiest way would be to replace the existing inbox etc. in the new
account with your old one.
Note: If you already have mails in your new account which are not in
your old account and therefore should not be lost, you can't replace
them but will need to rename inbox etc. from your old account to
InboxOld or something like that and paste it to the new account with
that new name. Seamonkey will then automatically show those additional
Folders in your new account besides the standard folders on the next start.

I hope I could help and clarify some things.
kind regards

I guess there is no comfortable way of achieving this (at least to my

preferences (not Preferences => Mail & Newsgroups), select your account
there and enable HTML Composing BEFORE hitting reply.
Then answer the email and set it back afterwards.

Yeah it will say that there is something actually starting, which is a
huge improvement for impatient people trying to click on a samonkey xe
or shortcut again because they think they missed it.
I guess making this an option to be able to disable it would be the
smallest problem of the whole thing...

First of all Beta1 is the current one, not alpha3 ;-)

Of course the migration of more profiles would be a luxury but you can
migrate with only a few steps:

If you wish to migrate more than one profile or set the profile name,
run SeaMonkey with the following arguments (one after another):
* Seamonkey -createProfile 
* Seamonkey -P  -migration

I guess by having machines configured identically you have proven that
the problem is not on your end.
To make sure you could create a new profile on a machine that doesn't
work and copy the data from a profile of a working machine in there.
Then use this profile to try to send email. If it works...

This is a known bug (see bugzilla with search terms like "multiple
master password prompts") which will hopfully be fixed before final release.
Feel free to disable mail-checking on browser-start in the preferences
for not being bugged while browsing if you wish.
Of course you could also disable the Master password for now until the

Everything will be fine, Seamonkey updates the program diretory, not
your profile directory.
You can delete the program directory etc. if you wish at ay time, your
profil will stay safe and can be used later on.

The only exception is when Seamonkey 2.0 shows up. Then you will have to
repeat these steps to move your SM2 profile once again (but only one
time). This is due to the fact that SM2 creates a new profile by
importing data from your old SM1.1.x profile.
As long as you're updating SM1.1.17 to 1.1.18 for examle no further
steps are required. And when you update SM2.0 to SM2.1 or whatever no
further steps will be required.

Moving your profile to your data-partition is a very good idea as you
can format your OS-partition (or reload backup, whatever) at any time
without losing any of your profile data.

So now you know there are vidos which are reproducable to not show up.
There are only 2 ways left in my opinion:
1. Have a look at the website source-coe if it differs (e.g. has errors
in it) => if yes: contact the site-owner
2. Ask the flashblock author (or forum or flasblocks bugtracking system
if there is one) if these videos compared to others are beded in a way
flashblock can't handle properly.

 Hi Jo,
 The new component named Extension Manager 2.0 has never worked for me.
 But the former one, originally named just Extension Uninstaller works
 perfectly together with the API component.
 If you want to try it tell me and I can send you that by e-mail.

You can set the Browser.bookmarks.file in about:config to a specific 
location. See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.bookmarks.file


FF offers an auto-export pref in about:config for always generating a 
bookmarks.html I think. Seamonkey always uses boookmarks.html

Re: SM 2.0a3 Player Challenges...

Hello all, I have tried looking this situation up and cannot find a
solution.. possible anyone here can assist?

I Am running SM 2.0a3 on a WinXP Pro machine. When trying to listen to
the following web site, nothing happens. By nothing happens, I mean the
link opens and no sound nor does it appear that a connection is made.

I have tried reloading the page and that did not work.

When I was able to use ie tabs add-on, there was no problem when using
SM 1.1.14. Any work around for this known?

http://dukeandthedoctor.com/listen.htm
SM (2.0beta1 here) tries to download the whole file before opening it. 
IE8 does nearly the same, it offers to download instead of playing 
directly. Maybe it's the site'S fault.



Your choices (based on Windows Media Format):

- Right-click on a Windows Media Link and select "Save target as" to 
download the file and play it afterwards


- Right-click on a Windows Media link and select "copy link location" to 
copy the address to the clipboard. Afterwards Start Windows Media Player 
and select "File => Open URL" and paste it there. It will start 
streaming the file.


- Open the preferences of SM and open the "Helper Applications" there. 
Select the wIndows Media Audio and selct another action (e.g. download 
or "always ask")
You may also want to check in about:plugins if your 
Windows-Media-Player-Plugin is correctly installed/registered in 
Seamonkey at all.

Hi Martin (and Chris),

Hello Mort,

you need to open the Seamonkey addressbook-window just once and
then
close ALL seamonkey windows. It needs to be completely closed.

Afterwards you need to open the directory of your old
Seamonkey-profile and copy the abook.mab file. Then paste it
into the
new profile-folder.
All this is done within windows while Seamnkey is closed, not in
Seaonkey itself and not while Seamonkey is open as the files
would be
in use then.
Good luck!

Martin


Why don't you just google Mozilla Backup from Jasnapak? and
install it
on both computers. Then copy the backup file to a thumb drive,
CD, DVD
or however you want to get the backup file to another computer the
restore it to the new computer?

Eric


This involves copying anyway, so it doesn't really matter if he
copies
a backup or the abook directly ;-P

Martin

Hi again,

I opened up and tried every "profile" on my hard drive, and could not
move the abook.mab to my SeaMonkey address book. I tried dragging,
to no
avail. I clicked on copy, but then paste was all grayed out. So
near and
yet so far. I have my e-mail set up so that as I send out a
message, its
address is automatically added to my SeaMonkey address book.
However, my
hundreds of important oldaddresses are still sitting there on my
h.d. in
narrative form.


I'm repeating myself but just to make things clear: you are not
supposed to drag it on your seamonkey addessbook. You are supposed
to drag/copy it from a folder to another folder in windows itsself
(from your old profile to your new profile).
This is just normal copying of a file, it does _not_ involve a
running seamonkey at that time. Have you done exactly that?
regards

Martin


Hi Martin,

I appreciate your help and patience. I did try to take your advice
re. old and new SeaMonkey profiles in Windows XP with SeaMonkey
closed. The closest I came is to find a "SeaMonkey Profile Manager"
which said:
Available Profiles:

default
Mort
Mort app
Mort app ff
Mort local ff

My usual user name is Mort. Right clicking gives nothing, and left
clicking on any of these just opens SeaMonkey. I simply cannot find
my profiles (old, new?) to copy the abook.mab to.As things are, the
old abook.mab file on my hard drive is in narrative form and thereby
almost useless. The current SeaMonkey Address Book has only about 30
recent addresses.

Thanks again.

Mort

P.S. For some reason, my laptop refuses to copy sent messages, to
this group only, to my sent folder, and gives my sender name as
invalid or similar. It works to all other recipients. Weird.


Yes it involves copying, but the interface is usually cleaner.

Mort,

If you back up all the profiles and transfer them, then you you
should have everything moved from one computer to the other.

What you are looking for is a file folder with .slz file extension,
however that changes from installation to installation, and for some
unknown reason, I've seen through out many newsgroups, the files
don't play well together.

I wish you luck in your future attempts.

Eric


and, of course, Mort, Eric meant the file extension to be .slt and the
changes he talks about are that the file name maybe something like
fxgjht5j.slt in one case and something like dsf67kgh.slt in the other
installation. No great problem.

Daniel

Hi Daniel and Eric,

Thanks again for the further help. I'll pursue it as per your
suggestions, and if not successful, I'll have to quit.

Mort


Have a look here: http://seamonkey.ilias.ca/profilefaq/

SQite 3 editor. (not for me)


I was looking thru the Seamonkey folder I installed it to. Found the
file you mention and then went looking for a SQLite viewer/editor -
found one that might work. It's called RazorSQL. I haven't tried it yet

There an addon which works in Seamonkey:

I'm sorry but for now this is wrong. In fact when this problem comes up 
for people who had not used a master-password in SM1, they /do/ need to

Obviously this is a bug as it shouldn't happen, but it happens, so it is 
required to do such things for now with beta1 as long as noone comes up 
with another solution.
Luckily after deleting key3.db all passwords are remaining intact and 
are accessible afterwards. So SM doesn't seem to encrypt with the "new" 
(not-existing) master-pw, it just thinks there is one or so (I don't 
know about the technical details). So deleting that file is the only 
solution for now afaik until this is fixed.




2. If you never had a Master Password in your 1.1.x version and you are
now being prompted for one with SM2 after it's imported your 1.1.x
profile, you shouldn't. Please post with details on what you are seeing.
Again, *Do not" use 'Reset Master Password' (read the warning).

After that first use of a submit button, the following buttons I

Anybody experienced the same thing? What is the cause of this and can it

maybe?)

Don't think it's any extension, the same thing happen in a new clear

I'm on Win Vista (Business edition) since a year back, but as I said
this has not happen in previous SM versions on Vista. Of course there is
a possibility that a Windows Update may change something, but can't
remember having any at the same time I upgraded SM?


Can you reproduce this with SM2.0beta1 too?
(just instal into a second directory, it won't touch you old SM then and 
even create a new profile by importing most relevant data from the old

Re: Apple QuickTime corrupts SeaMonkey--but how?

[Martin Feitag]

Dick Baker schrieb:

For years, I've periodically tried installing QT only to be outraged by
the fact that it seizes all video&  audio file associations without
asking.  Over and over, I've banished it from my PCs.

But now, in a moment of weakness (foolishness?), I've bought an iPhone,
and it appears that Apple doesn't like PDF help files--it prefers
tutorials in *.mov format.  So I gingerly tried again to install the
latest version of QuickTime Player (7.6.2).  To my pleasant surprise, it
actually presented an installation option for file and MIME type
associations.  For both, I deselected *everything* except Apple QT movies
(*.mov).

And, to my pleasant surprise, it does not seem to have seized any file
associations on the computer.  BUT when I ran SeaMonkey and went to my
twotonbaker.com site and tried to play mp3 files there, I discovered that
both SeaMonkey (and, for what it's worth, MSIE) were using QT as the
default player for mp3 files, instead of Windows Media Player, which is
what I prefer.

Thinking I could undo this within SeaMonkey, I went to
Edit>Preferences/Navigator>Helper apps, where I found
audio/mpeg = .mp3 = open using default

Oddly, it still showed WMP as the default.  So I tried to edit that entry
to set/reset default as WMP, but it reported, "SM can handle this type
internally.  For such types, a helper app will only be invoked if the
server requests external handling."  I went ahead and made the choice,
but this didn't change anything at twotonbaker.com:  mp3s still played by
QT.

So I got deviously clever:  I pulled out my seldom-used Notebook and
uninstalled SeaMonkey, including deleting the Mozilla directory under
docs&  settings.  I then installed QuickTime, being careful not to let it
seize any file associations.  And I checked:  WMP was still the default
app for playing mp3 files.

Only then did I reinstall SeaMonkey.  And to my surprise and horror, the
new installation insisted on opening mp3 files in QuickTime.

What in the world is going on?  QT can't be rewriting SeaMonkey to tell
it to use QT as the mp3 player, because SeaMonkey wasn't there when I
installed QT on the notebook.  And SeaMonkey isn't getting the mp3=QT
association from Windows because it's not there.

I am completely flummoxed.


You were almost there I guess. But the plugins are installed into the 
program directory, not the profile-directory in documents&settings.
So after uninstalling SM make sure to not have a plugins directory with 
a quicktime plugin left there in the Seamonkey program directory.


Alternatively you can try to find all QT-plugin-files by opening 
about:plugins (via the address-bar where you type things like 
www.google.com etc.) in a Seamonkey Browser window.
Have a look for all Quicktime Entries there. They always name a filename 
below their headline.
It's very likely that they are named npqtplugin.dll and npqtplugin*.dll 
(where * is a number from 2 to 5 for example). So find all QT-filenames 
in your about:plugin-screen, let them search on your harddrive and 
delete all of them. That should wipe out all Quicktime plugins.

Usually the files are located in X:\Program Files\Seamonkey\plugins
(where X: is the driveletter of your windows-partition, C: on most 
computers), mine is in D:\Progs\Seamonkey\Plugins for example. I guess 
you know where you installed your SM to ;-)

Hi Martin (and Chris),

I have the link, and tried hard to follow it, but I must be doing
something wrong. I tried dragging, transferring, etc., but I cannot move
my abook. to my SeaMonkey address book. I tried copying, and then
pasting, but the "paste" is always grayed out and non-functional.

I would be most grateful if either of you could walk me through the
steps that I must take to get these hundreds of addresses into my
SeaMonkey address book.

Thanks again,

Mort


Hello Mort,

you need to open the Seamonkey addressbook-window just once and then 
close ALL seamonkey windows. It needs to be completely closed.


Afterwards you need to open the directory of your old Seamonkey-profile 
and copy the abook.mab file. Then paste it into the new profile-folder.
All this is done within windows while Seamnkey is closed, not in 
Seaonkey itself and not while Seamonkey is open as the files would be in 
use then.

Good luck!

Is it possible to add swfs to a website in Composer?  If so, how do I

Switch to the tab HTML Source to view the sourcecode.
Now embed the swf at the position you would like to have it by inserting 
at least the following code:








Of course you have to replace filename.swf by the name of your swf-file. 
(and add the path to the swf file before the filename, if it is not 
located in the same directory as your html-file)

And set width and height according to the size of your swf.

A more complete code would include the class-id etc. Mabe you want to 
have a look at the following page after the easy example above works.

Re: Strange behaviour with submit buttons

[Martin Feitag]

Arne schrieb:

Hi,
I upgraded to SeaMonkey 1.1.17 a couple of weeks ago, from 1.1.15 and
since then SM is behaving strange every time I click on a submit button
the first time for each browsing session.

Does not matter what site it is, where I click on the submit (Login,
etc) button. After I clicked the button is marked as clicked on
(vertical dotted lines on each side of the button text), I have to wait
for 6 or 7 seconds before anything happens and the browser start to
execute what ever the purpose for the clicking is for.

After that first use of a submit button, the following buttons I
(eventually) click on the same or other sites behave as they always has
done and should do. I have not notice such a delay on submitting with my
previous versions of SM.

Anybody experienced the same thing? What is the cause of this and can it
be fixed or is it fixed in future versions? It's not a big deal, but
getting a bit annoying.


I cant't reproduce this, neither with SM1.1.17 nor with SM2.0beta1. 
Seems to be something special with your configuration. (An extension maybe?)

Hi,


I have SeaMonkey 1.1.17 installed, but I can't find an option to block

I would suggest to create a Filter for that email-address.
Select an email from the address you don't like and open the "Message" 
menu from the menubar. One entry (probably the last one) offers to 
create a new filter from that message. Select it, SM will already 
prefill the first section of the upcoing window. Have a look at the 
bottom half to select the actions SM should take. You can move the 
message to a specific folder for example or delete it or delete it via 
via POP on the server, or mark it as junk, whatever you prefer.

Deleting or deleting via POP is probably what you will like most.

Real blocking (instead of auto-deleting) can only be done on/by the 
server directly.

I strongly suspect that SeaMonkey is not broken and therefore requires
no fix.  The page has 50 XHTML errors and 3 CSS errors.  Until those
errors are corrected, you should suspect them to be the cause of your
problem.


It displays nicely in SeaMonkey 2.0b1pre&  FireFox 3.5, is totally
wacked in 1.1.17, a little flat but ok in Opera, and nicely in Epiphany
(Gnome Web Browser 2.26.1 which uses gecko-1.9 - see
http://projects.gnome.org/epiphany/). So I reckon that 1.1.17 is broken
&  recall a bug to this effect but can't put my finger on it just now. I
think it had something to do with css style handling.


So many errors and you think it's Seamonkey's mistake? Pff!




I have previously seen the same apparent problem on tigerdirect.com
where the main body of the page is off to the right of the screen for
some reason, and it only happened in SeaMonkey. (that site seems to be
okay now, though)

The ca.gov site from OP's problem does, however, have terribly mangled
XHTML (including two closing body tags and many improperly nested
tags, among other things). It would be interesting to see if the page
still exhibited problems after being fixed.


I bet not!
I've never seen a major website which causes problems for Seamonkey1.1.x 
_without_ having fatal errors.

My address book is in alphabetical order (A - Z) also when I compose.
Clicking on the "Address" header reverse the order to Z - A, but no

Yes that window is always the same. You have start typing an address

Re: bookmarks sharing post-places

[Martin Feitag]

Felix Miata schrieb:

Has anyone found a practical way to do this, preferably without running any
involved Gecko application?

When all bookmarks depended exclusively on bookmarks.html, it was easy to
share by simply copying that file from whichever profile was used to maintain
it to any other profile that wished to use it. It didn't matter if the
profile was for Firefox or SeaMonkey or some other Gecko.

Places merged history and bookmarks. As a result, if you delete places.sqlite
from a profile and copy the bookmarks.html file to that profile in order for
it to be automatically converted to places format, all history is lost for
that profile. If instead you copy from a master places.sqlite profile to
another that desires to use its bookmarks, the original history is replaced
with that of the profile copied from. Either way, the discrete history of the
profile copied to is lost.

Is there any convenient and practical way to share bookmarks without
destroying history?

FWIW, my bookmarks.html file is more than 500k.


Using the Import/Export functionality of the Bookmark Manager maybe?
Seamonkey allows import export to HTML and so does Firefox afaik.

holding up SM 2x then maybe SM 2.0 should be released with a lesser mail
client.

I guess I'm especially despondent because I've been a fanatical
supporter of the "suite" browser concept since Netscape 0.8 and now I
feel that nothing sufficiently modern is out there that I'm comfortable
using. The SeaMonkey Project is in danger of becoming irrelevant if they
keep dithering and waiting for utter perfection.

According to Robert Kaiser it wasn't planned and they were pretty 
surprised that the TB team struggled that much / was lacking a proper 
plan or whatever. They are kinda angry because of that and it sounded 
like that there will be taken actions to prevent such thing happening again.

PS: As said for an alpha it's very stable, don't compare it too much 
with other alphas you might have tested, as the codebase is pretty 
mature. Of course it's not recommended to replace SM1 with SM2 yet in a 
productivity environment but having SM2 parallely doesn't harm and keeps 
up the hope/interest ;-)

There's a site which keeps crashing Seamonkey 1.1.17 when I click on
it, at least lately (it didn't used to happen). The site doesn't
hang when I use Firefox 3.0.11. The site is:
http://www.losangelesmovietimes.com/

On the SM Help menu there is a link to "Report Broken Web Site".
However when I click on that it wants to report the URL of the site
I'm on currently (my home page after restarting SM). The window
which loads doesn't seem to allow editing the URL line to put in the
site which is crashing the browser. And of course, when the browser
is hung, there is no way to click on the Help menu. So, the Report
link is useless for sites which crash Seamonkey. Isn't that a real bug?

I wish I could say this was an isolated incident. But I'm finding
more and more sites which hang in SM lately. Here's another: Load
http://www.outfest.org/fest2009/ and then click on the "Buy Tickets
& Online Film Guide" on the left side menu. Voila...hang. Again,
it doesn't happen with Firefox or IE.

Is this just my browser? Or is there a problem with SM?

--Ken Rudolph




The outfest site locked up my SM 1.1.15, couldn't even close the
browser by clicking the "X", had to CTRl-ALT-Delete and end program.
No Modem activity.


These sites aren't exactly malware, being fairly typical of important
web resources. The fact that SM 1x can't handle them, despite their
deficiencies, is all the more reason that SM 2x is necessary. I'm not a
beta kinda user...when IS 2.0 release version actually scheduled for? It
is really needed NOW.

--Ken Rudolph


Sry but afaik there's only a BETA scheduled for now which is targeted 
around the 16th of July (so pretty soon, they're primarily waiting for 
the Thunderbird team to complete their latest TB beta of v3.0 because of 
being dependent on some code in there)
Feel free to grab SM2.0alpha3 to test, it won't touch your existing SM 
and import all data to a new profile and is very stable, especially for 
an alpha version.
