Hello all :)
I read a lot of messages from people who had a few problems with migration
and e-mail stuff on 2.0, so I did a copy of my previous SM folder before
migrating!
I'm using OSX Tiger on iMac G5, and the migration was *perfect* :)
I have 1 profile, with 7 different e-mail addresses (both POP3 and IMAP
accounts), plus 2 news server accounts.
I found everything in the right place, all my many subfolders are there, no
lost messages, and all my settings are correct (I use different mail
servers, some with the 25 standard port, some not).
I'm satisfied by the new icons in the browser too.
I really don't understand the discussions I read about "modal windows", and
download manager; are these a Windows-only things ? On OSX I found
everything as before.
Now, I have some observations:
1) At 1st start-up after installation, there was a window asking for "master
password", but the field didn't accept any input; I restarted SM, and now it
works.
2) What did the developers change in SM, that now every 1st outgoing
connection to standard HTTP and SSL ports makes my firewall asking for
permission? It's the same odd behaviour as FireFox 3.5!
I mean: I open SM 2, write an URL, and Little Snitch asks "seamonkey-bin
wants to connect to www... TCP port 80. Deny or Allow?"! I never saw that
alert with previous versions of SM, nor with Safari, but only with FireFox
and now SM 2.
3) It seems to me the text size in web sites is larger than before.
4) In Mail Messages: why the View Headers only has "All, Normal" and no more
"extended, None" options?
Thank you for adding keyboard-shortcuts to some News commands :)
5) I see the little rainbow wheel when writing a long message like this one.
6) WHY the X button for closing tab is now at the right of the mail window
only, and not in every tab as before? I have to move the mouse a lot more
now! It was more easier before.
Ok, I'll do rendering tests another time, I can say that I'm satisfied with
the new SM 2.0, just fix the spinning wheel please!
thanx,
Gabriele
