Hi,
My husband and I just switched from outlook Express to SeaMonkey for
our email
client. What I didn't realize (He did) was that the SeaMonkey
browser would be
included in the download.
I have the Firefox browser as my default and want to keep it that
way, especially
for any links that I click on in my emails.
Is there any way I can have Firefox and not SeaMonkey come up when I
click on links
in my emails? I'd appreciate any help you can give here.
Thanks,

Go to Firefox preferences, where there should be a button for making
Firefox your
default browser. I don't have it installed on this computer so I can't
tell you the
precise location.
Then, start Seamonkey Mail, go to
Edit->Preferences->Mail & Newsgroups
and on the right side you'll see buttons for making Seamonkey your
default for mail
and news(groups).
The problem here is that clicking links in mail, RSS, etc. will open
SeaMonkey windows rather than Firefox windows. Unless the user is
willing to drag links onto Firefox all the time, there's precious little
reason to suggest using SeaMonkey for mail and Firefox for web. When
using Firefox, Thunderbird makes a better mail, news and RSS choice.
IMO, YMMV and all that.
I am using SeaMonkey for web, and Thunderbird for mail because my
pointing device lets me use the extra buttons by application, so if I
use email/newsgroups in SeaMonkey, I lose my programmable buttons.
Works fine for me. I am using SeaMonkey for the web because there is an
intermittent crashing bug in Firefox that crashed the program without a
dump (hangs). I thought I had this fixed, but it still happens.
