yes. also with safe mode. no difference except that with an account with few folders the startup appears to be a bit quicker. no news servers are configured in these accounts, only IMAP servers that are on the local network. once the very slow startup is completed the program operates normally. see Bug 903451 there is no logging of the firewall, it is a windows security policy that allows only outgoing traffic within the LAN network range. on my Linux system (which is directly on internet) I see no outgoing connection during startup either. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
