For individual msgs: File|Save As|File will save the msg (or multiple msgs) as a plain text message. Now the interesing bit is that it will put a .eml tag on the end. On my system (linux), Nautilus will default to Opera to open the file (works). If I try to open in SeaMonkey 1.1.18 or 2.0, neither will open the file... _unless_ I change the .eml to .txt and _then_ they will open the file in the browser window. So thinking that I'd just change the Helper Application to include a application/x-mimearchive mime encapsulated web archive .eml I find that I can no longer do that in SeaMonkey 2.0 (can in 1.1.18). _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
