I have SeaMonkey 2.20 on a Vista machine.

For sites I don't consider vital, I have SeaMonkey remember the
passwords, and when I forget one, I open Password Manager and look it up.

However, with the latest version of SeaMonkey, this no longer works.  It
still acts like it is remembering the passwords, but when I go to look
one up, the Password manager option opens Data Manager, showing all the
cookies that have been installed.

Is there a way to look up my forgotten passwords?

They're there, but sometimes you have to give SM a little guidance.

The Data Manager has five tabs on the right
(Cookies/Permissions/Preferences/Passwords/Storage). If "Passwords"
isn't white, click it to select it.

Alternately, above the list of domains is a button that should say
"Passwords only." If not, click the down-pointing triangle at the end of
the button and choose that option.

In either case, once you have the list of password-enabled sites, click
"Show Passwords" at the lower right to see what you need.


There is a change between the 2.19 and 2.20 behaviour here, possibly a bug but probably a policy decision. Under 2.19, "Tools -> Password Manager" brought up a list of all domains *which had passwords saved*. Under 2.20, "Tools -> Password Manager" brings up a list of all domains which have any Cookies/Permissions/Preferences/Passwords/Storage saved.

Now you go to the domain required (there are just a lot more of them that before) and then "Passwords" will be clickable.
