SeaMonkey includes an email client, so the assumption is that you'd be
using it to post here. Of course, you may be using SeaMonkey just for
the web browser and Outlook Express for email, or some other combination
of uses. Paul offered some advice on sorting emails, assuming you were
using SeaMonkey. Daniel noticed you're actually using Outlook, so
pointed that out, since instructions for SeaMonkey don't necessarily apply.
BTW, when replying to digest emails it's easier for others to follow and
see what you're replying to if you:
1. Change the subject line from "Re: support-seamonkey Digest..." to
"Re: <the topic you're replying to>"
2. Delete the other topics from your reply, so only the part you're
replying to remains.

I don't understand what's wrong with Outlook Express users posting to the
Mozilla Seamonkey user list?? Or am I misunderstanding things I read here?

Paul and Daniel
Thanks for your reply and the information on using this list. I will continue to muddle
through all this until I "get the hang of it".
In the meantime, I received some instruction from someone about the issue I am
having with Seamonkey. I tried all the suggestions but they didn't work.
After installing the version 2.29 update, some of the sites I try to access
will not load a full page. One of my financial accounts is inaccessible
because the only thing that shows on the page that loads, is the data bar for
my user name, but nothing else. There is no button or other links of any kind
to execute the user name action, so I can't continue with entering my password.
I can access the site using Firefox and other browsers but Seamonkey has been
rendered somewhat inoperable. How do I fix this? I have tried uninstalling
Seamonkey and then installing an earlier version, but the same thing still
happens.
Any suggestions?
Tim

For Daniel from Tim
It seems to me that there are some people, (like myself a computer
novice), using this list, who don't understand how to keep the
postings from becoming mingled so that we can't determine who is
replying to whom, or how to keep the topics separate from each
other. In other words, very few seem to know what's going on. There
needs to be some organization somehow. Are you a moderator? If not,
will they help?
The short answer is to look at the options on the View menu.
"Sort by: Threaded" will group messages in the same thread
(conversation) together. You can also choose Ascending/Descending
according to whether you want the oldest messages at the top or bottom.
"Threads: With Unread" will filter out threads that contain only
messages already marked as read. Since there are over 87,000 messages in
this newsgroup, you don't want to sift through all that every time you
visit. With this setting, I generally find fewer than 20 new messages
when I check in the morning; the rest are hidden.
The attribution line ("So-and-so wrote:") at the top tells you who is
writing, and there should be nested attribution lines under that if he's
quoting previous posters.
It's not so complicated, and it's not true that "very few seem to know
what's going on." Only newbies and rare posters find it confusing. Stick
around and you'll get the hang of it.
Paul, did you note that the OP was posting using MSOE??
No, it never occurred to me that was even possible. Why would an OE user
be posting here?
Beats me!! Maybe he's seen the error of his ways!! :-)
