My display hides the mail toolbar to save space, since I normally use keyboard shortcuts such as "N" (next unread message), "M" (mark as read), etc. If I show the mail toolbar, I see the "Junk" and "Mark" buttons, but I was unaware of their existence since I don't normally show the toolbar. Hence my joking query. To keep a message from opening in the preview pane when you select it just right-click the message and then in the drop down box select Junk or Not Junk. The selected message will not display in the preview pane during this operation. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Hence my joking query. To prevent opening the message when you select it, pull down the View menu, choose Layout, and uncheck Message Pane. You can use a separate window to display messages. I'm well aware of how to disable the preview pane. Most of the time, I prefer to have the three-pane layout (folder list, message list, preview pane). It's only very rarely that I need to select a junk message without opening it, and I usually remember to disable the preview pane for that moment.

Seamonkey's junk controls are inadequate - the Junk and Not Junk buttons
don't appear everywhere they're needed. I use an add-on called
JunQuilla to allow better management of the junk mail filters.

What do you mean those buttons are not appearing everywhere? Is one or
the other not in the main toolbar? If not, put it there.

I hit the ignore warning button each time but I can get another one the next day and it gets flagged. "Ignore warning" doesn't train the Junk Mail Control feature. It basically says, "I know it's junk, but quit nagging me." In order to train the JMC feature, you have to mark the message as "not junk." Message | Mark | As not Junk or SHIFT-J will do it. After a few of those, SM should take the hint. -- War doesn't determine who's right, just who's left. -- Paul B.
