I will try going back to 2.48. I had the problem using 2.49.1 and hoped 2.49.2 would fix it, but evidently not. I am not sure about changing servers as I am concerned it will mess up my phone and tablet email, but I am willing to try to live with 2.48 for now. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
