Now back to the original subject. We do get that popup (for an IMAP account) and it does have the "remember" checkbox, but by default it is not checked. I want to change that (within a company) to show the checkbox checked when this popup appears. Anyone know how such a popup is constructed, how to find the piece of code where that happens, and if it is possible to change such a default? Maybe those popups are not even constructed in code but are defined in some xml or other resource file, which can be modified. I don't know. But best would be to change it using a pref, as I can modify those in my locked pref file that is automatically distributed to all users. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
