Thunderbird menus (as in the link) are different from SM, but I solved the problem of
switching to smtp.gmail.com in 2.49.2 by the expedient of deleting smtp.att.yahoo.com.
2.49.2 doesn't seem to like being required to use multiple smtp servers, any more
than switching default search engines.
As an experiment I reinstalled SM 2.48. End of problems. 2.48 has no problem sending
through gmail's smtp without needing to delete anything. Or with sending through
Yahoo's smtp without producing spurious characters in the final result.
So I'll be using 2.48 at least until 2.49.3 arrives. This is sad!

This is interesting. As an experiment I changed my SM 2.49.2 default SMTP from
smtp.att.yahoo.com to smtp.gmail.com. Then I tried repeating the example I tried
before with the same results. BUT...Seamonkey was NOT using Gmail's SMTP
server, if
the box that pops up after you click Send is a true indication. It was still
using
att.yahoo.com.
Either something's wrong or PEBKAC...

If you can reproduce it file a bug. Might be in shared mail / news code with
Thunderbird so if you run this too try there also.

The problem occurs in both current TB and SM. But ONLY if I send through the
ATT/Yahoo SMTP server. The issue does not appear if I use my hosting company
(Bluehost) server.
This is bad. The last time I went down this road it took MONTHS for them to
even
acknowledge there was a problem.
They do not want people to use email clients. They want to be able to inundate
us
with ads in webmail.
