I thought I'd have another try with Seamonkey 2.1 but ran into a couple
of problems.
(1) I thought I saw SM say it was importing FF5 bookmarks but must have
been mistaken. I know other browsers can't manage that trick but would
have thought another Mozilla product would have been up to the task.
Silly me! Don't worry, I know the way to get round this one - export
bookmarks from FF as HTML and then import them into SM - but it's a pity
the left hand doesn't know what the right one is up to.
(2) Most mail folders and account info was imported more-or-less OK but
"Blogs& News Feeds" is a disaster area - nothing imported there.
(a) I tried exporting from TB5 as OPML file - or files, it only seems to
try one file at a time - but this was a total failure. I don't know where
the fault lies but suspect TB5 as the file was empty apart from the date.
Having said that, the "Manage subscriptions" import option may be as
useless as the "add" button (see (c)).
(b) I then tried copying the TB5 files (mail/feeds folder and feeds.msf)
into the SM folder but that made no difference.
(c) Next, I tried adding the feeds from scratch using "Manage
subscriptions" but it couldn't manage to do anything. Clicked on "add"
and then pasted in the HTML for the feed, then "OK", but nothing
happened. Did the identical thing with TB5 using the same link and it
worked fine.
Can someone help?
Well, you know, 2.1 is now history, since the release of 2.2.
2.2 is supposedly (mostly) the maintenance release for 2.1.
They hope to have the automatic updater module for 2.0 (& 2.1 ?)
to 2.2 ready in about 2 weeks, And then 2.3 is due to be ready
about a month after that. They are already concentrating on
the development of 2.5
So really what do you want, hope for?
I'm sure? it will all be fixed in the next release. :) :/
Dth?
