Re: SeaMonkey 1.1.17 Compatibility with MailWasher 6.51 (Free)
Frog schrieb: I checked the MailWasher Web page and learned that the free version of this software is now MailWasher 6.51. It indicates on the web page that it is compatible with Thunderbird 2 (no mention of SeaMonkey is indicated on this web page). Is it likely that this MailWasher 6.51 software is compatible with SeaMonkey 1.1.17 software? Yes, Seamonkey 1.1.17 and TB2 are very similar. Additionally, I have downloaded the MailWasher 6.51 (free) software to my computer and need to know how best to load it on my system (if anybody has experience with this software). Do I remove the existing software (via Add/Remove) or simply let the updated version load over the existing version. I can't find the answer to this question on the software makers web page (must have Pro version or the paid for version of MailWasher before I can get this information from the software maker). My reason for wanting to be careful of my actions here is my present version has been trained to recognize what I consider good messages and what I consider to be spam. I would like to maintain this established training in my new updated version of MailWasher 6.51. 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. regards Martin -- () ascii ribbon campaign - against html e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org - http://www.gerstbach.at/2004/ascii ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

SeaMonkey v1.x does get slower and slower in Windows with longer uptimes in Windows XP SP2-3. I know it leaks memory for long uptime (have seen its peak go almost 1 GB!), many tabs (I can go crazy like 50+ tabs at once!), etc. Also, having many extensions (have almost 20!). When I don't need to use SM, I do exit it to free up memory. As Robert pointed out, SM 2.0 is considerably better. However, I'd recommend that you install PrefBar: http://prefbar.mozdev.org/ Customize it to add the 'Clear Mem Cache' button and clear the memory cache (and others) when you notice the problem. To add the button, you can either click on the 'Customize' button, or use: Edit|Preferences|Preferences Toolbar. Works in 1.1.x and 2.0x. This strikes me as a solution in search of a problem. I can easily clear the cache by going into Edit | Preferences | Advanced | Cache, and it only takes me an extra second or two. Not enough trouble to justify installing an extra bit of software. Oh, it has other nice buttons and checkboxes, too. ;-) (e.g. for enabling/disabling PopUps, javascript, restoring the last tab, etc.) What I would like to have is a user setting that tells SM do/don't clear cache on exit, or clear cache every nn hours, or something like that. Included in SM2.0 With modern broadband connections, caching doesn't really speed up pae loading that much anymore the way it did in the dialup days.

And when you update SM2.0 to SM2.1 or whatever no further steps will be required. ---do I have a separate action to take involving the tomtom entry found in the Mozilla folder? ---is moving this Mozilla folder to the E drive a good or bad idea? 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. regards Martin ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

To fix this, you need to install the Extension Manager 2.0 and the Extension UnInstaller API 2.1 fromhttp://www.mozmonkey.com/. Then you should be able to see the Extension Manager under Tools in SeaMonkey. Use the Extension Manager to disable or uninstall one or two extensions at a time and the re-start SeaMonkey until the Browser image looks right. Try and find an updated version of the sus extension. Hope that helps. Daniel Hi Daniel, thanks for replying. As this is a clean install of Seamonkey (and I've uninstalled and reinstalled several times since yesterday) isn't it a bit odd that it would have an extension that I haven't installed? Unfortunately I can't get your recommended file to install as I get an error message not a valid install package error for both components. Running the file from a download simply asks me to pick an application to open it with. Under Tools I have the option to click on Extension Uninstaller but doing so simply brings up a warning telling me to install the app, which I can't do. Grateful for further guidance. This extra large bit at the bottom of my screen has never been a problem before - I've used Seamonkey for several years. It's odd that it's cropped up now. The only difference is that I now have newly re-installed Vista along with SP2 ( SP1 caused the crash). Cheers, Jo 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. Cheers, Rubens Thanks Rubens, I'll let you know if I need it - I think I saw it there for download so might give it a try. Meantime I have a more perplexing issue. While last night and this morning I was able to open Seamonkey and have all my old mail and bookmarks open, now when I load Seamonkey it loads without all of these items. Opening Profile Manager still shows me the default profile where I copied everything but it's just not displaying. Looking at the users/profile directory shows the data, but Seamonkey is simply not loading it on startup. Any suggestions? Jo Jo, my normal response would be to tell you that SM didn't close down correctly and that when you started up today, you must have made up a new profile. I'd then tell you to go to your Profile Manager to see if you had an extra profile..but you've been there and you haven't, so I'm a bit stumped, but... Just to be real sure, close SeaMonkey, wait about a minute, then give the Windows three finger salute (Ctrl-Alt-Del) and if you see SM still listed as running, click on it and End Task. Close the Window, re-start SMhow are things now?? Daniel Hi Daniel, there's definitely nothing in the processes relating to Seamonkey. And when I first re-booted started SM with a cleanmachine I still got no profile. I've already un- and re-installed SM a couple of times. Now I'm thinking about ditching it altogether and using an other app. But what mail apps will accept an imported SM profile? Cheers, Jo O.K., Jo, before you go away, open SeaMonkey, have a look at Edit-MailNewsgroup Preferences, select your email account (may be your only account), have a look at the bottom of the Server Settings screen, it should tell you where your Local Directory is. Note this location. Have a look athttp://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/helpandsupport/learnmore/tip... to un-hide your folders if necessary. Then close SeaMonkey, make sure it's not still running by Ctrl-Alt-Del, then do a Windows Find File or Folder looking for inbox (without the ). The reason I've asked you to do this search is that when you un-install SeaMonkey, you are just un-installing the program, your profile, which contains all your e-mails, etc, is not un-installed. It may be just that when you did a re-install of SeaMonkey, it might not have found the old profile. If the search does find an inbox (without the ), it might just be in your lost profile. If you only find one inbox (without the ), is it in the same location as the Local Directory you noted in SM

Re: Apple QuickTime corrupts SeaMonkey--but how?
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 EditPreferences/NavigatorHelper 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 documentssettings. 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 ;-) kind regards Martin ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Re: bookmarks sharing post-places
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.

Re: SeaMonkey Upgrade and Add-On problems
Charlene schrieb: I have several issues: 1. I'm having a problem with at least one add-on I added the other day. Symptoms: a) As part of the status bar I have a inch long mostly blank space that has a red ^ on the left halfway down. b) Once I open the email window, and one other window, I cannot open up the view source. SeaMonkey does know that I tried to open it. When I close all viewable SeaMonkey windows and try to exit I can't because it thinks there's a window open. This is probably due to the failed add-on. I suggest you to get Extension Manager (requires Extension Uninstaller afaik) from this site: http://mozmonkey.com/ Install it, close Seamonkey (kill it with the taskmanager if necessary) and restart SM. After that there should be an entry in Seamonkey's Tools menu named Extension Manager which offers you to manage/uninstall Extensions. Uninstall the suspicious one(s) which you think has caused the error. 3. There used to be an add-on manager like FF has. I couldn't find it. See above, it needs to be installed. In Seamonkey 2.0 it will be available by default. 4. I tried to uninstall SeaMonkey and re-install it to get rid of ALL personal settings (to solve the add-on problem - #1). I even did the re-install in a different folder. When I rebooted and re-installed, all my email settings were in effect. I couldn't find any file which SeaMonkey could be using that wasn't removed in the uninstall. The Seamonkey program is separate from your profile (which stores all your data, inlcuding mail etc.). If you want to get rid of our settings, you need to use a new profile, not a new program installation. You can do so by deleting your old one or just by creating an additional profile for now if you want to copy some things later on (e.g. mails) To create an additional profile, start the Seamonkey ProfileManager either by Seamonkey's startmenu entry or call it directly from the Tools menu in Seamonkey named Switch Profile or similar. I think the needed steps are pretty straight forward, otherwise feel free to ask. After creating a new profile Seamonkey will ask which profile to use on each start. Select your new one an start. After you have verified that everything runs fine you maybe want to recreate your email-ccounts etc. After that you can copy your inbox and sent file etc. from the old profile to the new profile (if you wish to keep the old stuff). If you don't care about any old settings feel free to delete the old profile.

Again, find the [random string].s file, like in Step 2 above. Write down the filename exactly as it appears. 3. Copy that file to your new profile's directory. 4. While Mozilla is not running (including Quick Launch), open the prefs.js file in your new profile directory in any text editor. 5. Find the following string in the file using your text editor's Search function: * SignonFileName You should have found a line that looks like the following: * user_pref(signon.SignonFileName, 91453348.s); 6. Change the number in that line to match the number of the filename you wrote down from Step 2. 7. Save your changes, and exit. You're done.

The copying the profile-approach assumes that both machines are not running at the same time. It assumes you copy your profile after finishing you work on one PC to another one and vice versa. Real synching is not possible that easy. I have to say usually IMAP or at least POP3 with the option leave messages on the server until deleted is being used (on at least one PC) and not all messages being fetched and deleted from the server as this causes a lot more trouble. You might consider changing that or switching to IMAP if possible. If your problem is the getting all mails on one machine just once to get started, it's probably the easiest way to send them to yourself and filter them (if it's not many) or copy the mailbox-files (inbox etc.), renaming them and throwing them into the profile folder of the other PC. That should integrate the new folder. This will cause duplicates (if existing) of course in different folders, but it's the fastest approach.

Weekly and monthly checks are available: http://img41.imageshack.us/img41/4042/sm1updates.png with the majority of work now going into SM2, I don't believe the auto-download will ever make it into SM1 This is right. SM1 only leads to the Download page and one has to download the new version manually. But as stated above, the notification is there and it leads directly to the corresponding Seamonkey website. :-) regards Martin ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Re: wrap issue when replying
HeavyDuty schrieb: SM 1.1.17, Win XP Pro SP3 I received several messages from a particular sender. When viewed in the in-box screen, the sender's text wrapped to form nice paragraphs. View message reveals that the original message is in plain text and not html. But when I selected reply and opened the compose window, the original text was quoted as one line of text a mile (1.6 kilometers) long! Is there some setting to force quoted text (or for that matter composed text) to wrap at 60 (72) characters? if it happens even with your new settings in the future: Ctrl+R forces a re-wrap in the reply-window ;-) regards Martin ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
Re: What most advanced Java compatible with Seamonkey?
GreenXenon schrieb: On my first attempt, I left SM open when I updated the setting in the Java Control Panel, and it didn't take. But if you did close SM before checking the box and it still didn't take, perhaps it's a Vista issue (I'm on XP Pro SP3). I did the later and it still didn't work. In addition, I use XP Pro SP3 -- no other OS. Still, on my PC -- for some reason I can't figure out -- J6-U14 refuses to work on SeaMonkey. However, J6-U13 works fine, unfortunately Excite mail is only compatible with J6-U14. Just to make sure: Have you disabled/closed the quickstart before running java-setup? regards Martin ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Re: Help Moving from Outlook on MS Win XP to Seamonkey on OSX MBP.
GoodOldBoy schrieb: Unfortunately, Seamonkey on OSX won't import Outlook, probably because Outlook is not installed in this OS. correct ;-) 1. What is the best way to achieve my goal of moving my Outlook information, files, mail, and folders to OSX on the MBP. The files are already imported into Seamonkey on the Windows platform. Why not move the seamonkey files then instead of the Outlook ones? 2. Can I import into Seamonkey on MS Windows and then move the appropriate folders to OSX, installing them in the appropriate directories? Yes. 3. Any suggestions as to the best way to proceed would be greatly appreciated. It should be able to do it the following way: - Just fire up your Seamonkey on OSX, create your mail- and news-accounts as they were existing on Windows. - You now have a profile smilar to your old one but everything is default (e.g. bokmarks) or empty (e.g. inbox folders in mail etc.). - Now close Seamonkey. - Copy all your data from the windows profile into the OSX profile. - Start Seamonkey again, all your data should be there. I've never don this to move to MacOS, but I hope it works for moving to MacOS, too.

Stan Have you tried running SM as with administrative rights? (Being an administrator is not enough on Vista and above. Right-click on the shortcut = ...) SM1 is known to have trouble on 64bit Vista/Win7 afaik. If the hint mentioned above doesn't work, you might want to have a look at the current SM2.0 alpha. regards Martin I don't understand what you mean by Right-click on the shortcut = ...) Stan He means that you can right-click on the shortcut used to launch SeaMonkey, and there is an option to run it as administrator (or something like that - it's been a while since I've seen Vista). Just select that and you should be asked for the Administrator password. Then it will run with Administration rights. If you then make the setting changes you may have better luck with them working. Note: I don't know whether or not this is your problem or if this will work, I'm just interpreting the response for you. Best of luck. Yeah, that's what I meant. I'm not having a Vista here either that's why I let out that part in the hope searching for that admin-entry would be easy enough ;-) Thanks Mark. Martin PS: Stan if this is an admin-account you're working at, it'S normal that you won't be asked for a password but have to confirm a security dialog anyway. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

I even rebooted but still no effect. Both these registry settings were supposed to work: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER \Software \Microsoft \Windows \CurrentVersion \Policies \Attachments] SaveZoneInformation = 1 and [HKEY_CURRENT_USER \Environment] SEE_MASK_NOZONECHECKS = 1 But neither did. However this did work: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER \Software \Microsoft \Windows \CurrentVersion \Policies \Associations] LowRiskFileTypes = .mp3 .wma .jpg .whatever you want At least it prevents the security warning, but the files are still saved with zone information. Using Downthemall works too. Thanks about the menubar. I guess it will take a while before I ge familiar with the menus :-) Fred I set SEE_MASK_NOZONECHECKS = 1 via Properties of My Computer = Advanced = ... and it works.
