I'm spewing myself!! I had my SM profile complete from when I first came 
on-line back in Nov 1996 . until I accidentally deleted my main 
profile!!


And it was about this time that I found out the system-wide back-ups 
that I'd been making to an external Hard drive were absolutely useless!!


Beauty!! Back-up!! Back-up!! Back-up!!

Hartmut, I just did that (re-ordered the accounts) by re-ordering the
accounts in the
user_pref("mail.accountmanager.accounts","account1,account5,account2,account4,account3");
pref in 'about:config' then completely closing SeaMonkey and re-starting SM.


Ah, so it works still. Fine. It may be that my experiments were at a
time when about:config not yet existed. *g*

Hartmut

about:config has worked for me for a looggg time, maybe since Moz 
Suite, but I could suggest you check with the SM Devs, but, well 
. ;-P

There is another way to achieve what you want. First, close SM and make
a backup of your prefs.js. In my current profile there are these lines
in the prefs.js:

user_pref("mail.account.account1.server", "server1");
user_pref("mail.account.account2.identities", "id1");
user_pref("mail.account.account2.server", "server2");
user_pref("mail.account.account3.identities", "id2");
user_pref("mail.account.account3.server", "server3");
user_pref("mail.account.account4.identities", "id3");
user_pref("mail.account.account4.server", "server4");
user_pref("mail.account.account5.identities", "id4");
user_pref("mail.account.account5.server", "server5");
user_pref("mail.account.lastKey", 6);
user_pref("mail.accountmanager.accounts",
"account1,account2,account3,account4,account5");

Edit your prefs.js by changing the order in the last pref. Start SM and
look if the order of accounts is now what you want.

In case you messed up, close SM and replace the modified prefs.js with
the backup.

I admit I haven't done such a manipulation for many years, but I seem to
remember that it worked. Any way, you have your backup. :)

I had the same problem and also a test-news-account that I did not complete.
So I do:
"Edit" - "Mail and Newsgroup Account Settings"
Selecting one at a time and clicking on the bottom-big-button labelled 
"Remove Account"
It seems that now about:config is cleaned (well correctly cleaned after 
stop-the-start SM).

Can't add new Email account

2011-05-12 Thread user

SeaMonkey 2.0.14 on Mac OS X 10.6
Trying to add new IMAP E-mail account on clear.net but
the dialog box to select Email, Newsgroup, etc never appears
and the subsequent dialog boxes are for adding a Newsgroup
not an E-mail account.

Note that this worked fine under Windoww XP.

This SeaMonkey on Mac OS X is the same one where my
personal certificate disappeared which leads me to think
something is damaged.  But where?   In my profile?
