When i use my windows live hotmail webmail account with seamonkey
1.1.16 and earlier, I can read my email but when I try to compose
mail, I cannot write the text of the mail.
The mail account works fully with Firefox so the hotmail end looks
like it is configured OK.
Can anyone throw any light on this please.
TIA
Bob
why can't you compose? What happens? What error messages, if any, do
you get? When you click on compose, what happens?
The reply window opens but I cannot type in it
Have you tried changing the user agent to pretent to be FF and see
what happens?
Sorry I don't understand this part.
Bob
yup, it seems they're browser sniffing. That means
they're sniffing to see what browser you're using, and
if you're using anything besides IE or FF, then you're
SOL. It just won't work with SM.
One way around this is to change you're user agent.
The UA tells the world what browser you're using, and
what operating sytem you're using. For example, your
UA is:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US;
rv:1.8.1.21) Gecko/20090403 SeaMonkey/1.1.16
This tells me you're using winXP [thats NIT 5.1],
you're using the US version of SeaMonkey, version 1.1.16.
If you install the UA Switcher, then you can change
your UA and pretend you're another browser, and a
nother operating system. You can get it here:
