For now, V1 does enough. I miss the tabs automatically reloading on the next startup, but I can live without it for now. What's weird now is clicking on links in emails will not automatically raise SeaMonkey to the top. I can live with that too. Also, going back to v1 meant recreating any new message filters and accounts that had been created in V2. I love the product regardless! I am impressed that V2 didn't destroy what V1 already had in place. If other products in Alpha could get that concept down the world would be a much better place! Thanks and keep up the good work guys. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Personally I'm a bit schizoid about the whole FF/ SM thing. I cannot see the difference between the FF/Tbird combination and SM on its own yet I know that if SM worked as well as the FF/TB combination I would opt for SM. However even though SM will by definition always lag behind I cannot resist playing with it, but I did find V2 a step too far as it currently stands. -- Jim S Tyneside UK www.jimscott.co.uk ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Feel free to install SM1 and use the old profile again. btw: You can have both Seamonkeys installed to have one reliable 1.x for everyday usage and one 2.x for testing. regards Martin Perfect. Thanks guys. I love SeaMonkey and I am anxious to see how good v2 will be. I like the new features, especially automatically reopening tabs upon restart. But for now, it's back to v1. Your choice. As I said feel free to have both installed :-) I did add the size and account columns. They were available when I right clicked -> Customize for the columns. They aren't there in v2. Uhm, in my Seamonkey 1.1.17 it is exactly the same as in SM2.0alpha. There's a "column" which is used to customize the columns by left-clicking on this symbol on the right: http://img31.imageshack.us/img31/397/customizecols.png Hope that helps in the future ;-) regards Martin ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
