Making this http://www.seamonkey-project.org/start/
as your home page . and you will be informed immediately when the
release is done.


And what about the other 100+ programs on my system?

Sorry, that is just a goofy suggestion.  Especially since Seamonkey (as 
well as most of my programs) can be set to automatically check for 
available updates.

LOL.  Don't know why but that just struck me as hilariously funny!

BTW, I hate full-page zoom (I have it turned off).  When I need to zoom 
it's because I have trouble reading the TEXT.  I've never come across a 
page where the author has deliberately made the graphics so small as to 
be un-viewable.  But poorly-informed page authors frequently use 
font-size definitions as to render their pages' text so small as to  be 
totally uncomfortable to me.


You can't know what your page viewers' screen size is, nor its 
resolution, nor their eyesight.


body {
font-size:  100%;
}

There ya go.  Let the user's preferences be in effect for your pages.

Do you have a minimum font size set? That can cause frames to overlap.

It looks okay to me.  However, I don't see any frames.  The navigation
area on the left side is part of the main page in the form of a sidebar;
I do sidebars on many of my pages without the use of frames.

Not for me, I get the same overlap of the navigation panel over the left

Re: Address Book - Sub-Book Properties

[d...@kd4e.com]

And, Ray, did you give it a go??? With-in your Addressbook, make a list
of 2 email addresses, 5 email addresses, 10 email addresses, whatever,
to the list, then close the list, select the list in your Addressbook,
then click "Bcc:"

As far as I know, this would cause the one e-mail to be sent to each
address in the list, but, because it was doing using "Bcc:" they will
not get all the addresses.

Daniel


If this is still about the original post here is the apparent
failure in communication ...

We are all in agreement that if we stuff several E-mail addresses
into a sub-book/sub-folder and then select that sub-book/sub-folder
as the target "address" (really multiple addresses), and then we
change the field to "BCC" that everyone in that sub-book/sub-folder
will receive a private E-mail and not be able to see any of the
others.

That is a closed issue.

The original question has remained unaddressed.

Can the sub-book/sub-folder be flagged "BCC" in the address book
so that whenever it is selected it is automatically only sent as
"BCC"?

If not, why not, please?

Whenever I add "Sub-Book", or the actual name of the subset
from my larger Address Book, I then click on "BCC:".

Is that what you mean?

If you mean that I have to manually type "Bcc:Sub-Book" every
time I send to "Sub-Book" that would add a step.

When I use "Sub-Book" I only have to type "Su" and the rest
is filled from the Address Book index of listings, saving me
time. (I am a poor typist, so everything typed for me is both
quicker and more accurate.)

If you mean that I could rename "Sub-Book" to "Bcc:Sub-Book"
and when I click on that as one choice of recipients that it
would send the contents Private, that would be a neat solution!



Doc, as an experiment, the next time you need to send out an
email to
your group, open the Addressbook in SeaMonkey, create a new list,
(call
it "Newsletter-1" or whatever), add the required email addresses to
the
list. Then close the list, and single click on it's name in the
addressbook, then click on "Bcc:" and click o.k..



When i am in the adress book and when i click on a list name 
there
is no "Bcc:" to click on ...


Don't know what you're doing wrong, Ray, in my case, when I'm
addressing
the email, I can select the list and then select Bcc: without a
problem.


When i select "Compose" for a new mail, i can click on the "To:" button
and change it to "Bcc" then in the zoen i begin to type the listname
and
i can click on it.
If a try to follow your consel:
i select "Compose" for a new mail...
then i click on "Windows" and i choice "Adress book" - this bring me in
the adress book where i can single click on it's name in the
addressbook, buth there is no way of clicking on an absent "Bcc:"
button.


Ray, try:-
1. Select "Compose" for a new mail
2. In the e-mail header, click on "Address", and your addressbook is
displayed so you can select the addresses you want.
3. Select (single click) an address.
4. Then click on "Bcc:"
5. Click on more addresses if you wish.
6. When you've finished selecting addresses, "o.k" your way out to be
left with your email

Give that a try.

Are you sure that the copy action will not insert a /png format into

Looking at
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Clipboard.paste_image_type
tells you: "Prefer PNG over JPEG over GIF"



The "snap" programs (Snipping Tool) and MWSnap3) pasted JPEGs into
Seamonkey Mail. I checked them with ImageZoom (
http://xsidebar.mozdev.org/modifiedmisc.html#imagezoom )Properties and
they were JPEGs. I also also pasted them into Irfanview and they showed
up as JPEGs. My "Clipboard.paste_image_type" was set to the default (1).
As you know, with a setting of "1," if the generated image is a JPEG the
paste will be a JPEG in TB and Seamonkey Mail since a PNG is not
presented to the mail program.

 From http://kb.mozillazine.org/Clipboard.paste_image_type :

-
1

Prefer PNG over JPEG over GIF (this is the default):

1. If PNG is available, paste in PNG format;
2. if PNG is not available but JPEG, paste in JPEG;
3. if neither PNG nor JPEG are available, but GIF, paste in GIF.

Ok, but i prefer continuing to use the simple paint.exe to manipulate a 
PtrnScrn action. Modifying clipboard.paste_image_type with the value of 2
In that case, evenwhile PNG is presented - it is pasted as JPEG (i have 
verified with "view"-"Message Source" and better .. The recipient using 
(not using the latest version of Lotus Notes) Lotus Notes is now able to 
see my paste picture in their mail.

Prefer GIF over JPEG over PNG:

   1. If GIF is available, paste in GIF format;
   2. if GIF is not available but JPEG, paste in JPEG;

Bug #338549 is Closed.  Some changes were implemented in Thunderbird
3.1.  Someone then declared: "... prompting on startup would be a rare
case for the majority of users ..."  However, this still happens
consistently in SeaMonkey.  Either the changes were truly insufficient,
or else they were not included in SeaMonkey's Mail-News component.

See also bugs #560792 and #560793, which are still Open.



There is a work-around --

1.  Go to your SeaMonkey profile.

2.  Open file user.js in a text editor.

3.  Insert the following lines:
user_pref("signon.startup.prompt", false);
// don't ask for master password until it's used,
// bugs #338549, #560792, and #560793
Don't forget to include the semi-colon (;) at the end of the first line.
 The second and third lines are comments to remind you why you did this.

4.  Save user.js.

For this to work, you must completely terminate SeaMonkey and then
relaunch it.

Alternatively --

1.  Enter about:config in the SeaMonkey address area.

2.  Enter signon in the Filter area.

3.  Find and select signon.startup.prompt.

4.  Double-click on the entry to change the value from "true" to "false".

I prefer the user.js method because that allows me to annotate the
change.  I only use the about:config method while testing changes.

I seem to be able to connect to my 'everyday' news server to
send/receive newsgroup messages - news.btinternet.com - without ever
entering a 'Username'. I usually just click on 'Cancel' or 'OK' whenever
I get this and the pop-up box disappears for a while.

I'd be grateful if someone could/would explain why this might be
happening - and the action I should take.

Dave


This might be a symptom of bug #338549.  However, that bug was
supposedly fixed several versions before 2.0.9.

See.



Were now at 2.0.10 but I *still* get the pop-up window every few seconds 
when using SeaMonkey.


What action should I take to 'report' this please?

I'd start by using the Seamonkey function to compress your drafts file.

If that doesn't work...


Most appreciative, kind sir!
I compacted my Inbox.
The numeral ‘1‘ in the folder didn’t disappear, but better yet, the message 
that was making it appear showed up! It was there, just hidden.

Soon as I deleted that message, all’s well again.

Seems I had temporarily forgotten that remedy.
I do thank you for reminding me, Rob.

Just to be perfectly clear, doc, when you entered the name of your
"Sub-Book" in the address field of the e-mail, you entered it as a

Daniel



Whenever I add "Sub-Book", or the actual name of the subset
from my larger Address Book, I then click on "BCC:".

Is that what you mean?

If you mean that I have to manually type "Bcc:Sub-Book" every
time I send to "Sub-Book" that would add a step.

When I use "Sub-Book" I only have to type "Su" and the rest
is filled from the Address Book index of listings, saving me
time. (I am a poor typist, so everything typed for me is both
quicker and more accurate.)

If you mean that I could rename "Sub-Book" to "Bcc:Sub-Book"
and when I click on that as one choice of recipients that it
would send the contents Private, that would be a neat solution!



Doc, as an experiment, the next time you need to send out an email to
your group, open the Addressbook in SeaMonkey, create a new list,
(call
it "Newsletter-1" or whatever), add the required email addresses to
the
list. Then close the list, and single click on it's name in the
addressbook, then click on "Bcc:" and click o.k..



When i am in the adress book and when i click on a list name 
there
is no "Bcc:" to click on ...


Don't know what you're doing wrong, Ray, in my case, when I'm
addressing
the email, I can select the list and then select Bcc: without a
problem.


When i select "Compose" for a new mail, i can click on the "To:" button
and change it to "Bcc" then in the zoen i begin to type the listname and
i can click on it.
If a try to follow your consel:
i select "Compose" for a new mail...
then i click on "Windows" and i choice "Adress book" - this bring me in
the adress book where i can single click on it's name in the
addressbook, buth there is no way of clicking on an absent "Bcc:"
button.


Ray, try:-
1. Select "Compose" for a new mail
2. In the e-mail header, click on "Address", and your addressbook is
displayed so you can select the addresses you want.
3. Select (single click) an address.
4. Then click on "Bcc:"
5. Click on more addresses if you wish.
6. When you've finished selecting addresses, "o.k" your way out to be
left with your email

Give that a try.


Thats ok for a single mailadresse - repeated for each chosen mailadress
- BUT
1. Only individual mail-adress are accessible mailing list is not show.
2. There is no way of doing this for mailing-list adress ... i said that
because you wrote:

And, Ray, did you give it a go??? With-in your Addressbook, make a list 
of 2 email addresses, 5 email addresses, 10 email addresses, whatever, 
to the list, then close the list, select the list in your Addressbook, 
then click "Bcc:"


As far as I know, this would cause the one e-mail to be sent to each 
address in the list, but, because it was doing using "Bcc:" they will 
not get all the addresses.

If that doesn't work...

On my (Linux) system, the files are named "drafts" and "drafts.msf".  I 
don't know the file locations on a Mac, but you can check here:


http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_SeaMonkey

You could try deleting the files and see what happens (back them up 
first, and do the deletion while Seamonkey is closed).  I have no idea 
whether Seamonkey will automatically regenerate them.

Hi Daniel,

More frustration now. When I click on the address book in the l.l.
corner, I get only Collected Address Book, and no Personal Address
book.
When I try to import, I click on Address Book, and get 4 choices, none
of which works :Eudora, Outlook, Outlook Express, or text(incl LDIF,
whatever that is). When I type in the folder name of each of my found
abook. files, none of them gets imported to anything.

Wow. It's like that old vaudeville joke about directions: You can't
get
there from here.

Thanks again, Daniel.

Mort


If at first you don't succeed, Mort,

1. In SeaMonkey, save an email address to your current abook.mab. This
will give the file today's dat, so you can tell which one is your real
abook. Tools->Export the addressbook to an .ldif file. Note its
location

2. Do a Windows Find File and Folder for abook.mab.

3. Change the name of your current abook (the one with today's date!!)
to something distinctive, keeping the mab trailer.

4. Move one of the other abook.mab's to the location of the original
abook.mab.

5. Start SeaMonkey and see if you can address an email.

If this abook is not the one you want, repeat steps 4 and 5 for the
other abook's. When you find the right one, then, if you want,
Tools->Import the addressbook that you started with and that you
exported as an ldif file.

See how that goes.

Daniel


Hi Daniel,

Again, many thanks. I do not have a current abook. icon in my SM. I have
only a Collected Addresses file icon in my SM. Search reveals 3 abook
files on my hard drive, each with 236 KB, and each with a long run-on
text. If I could enter a new address into one of them, which I cannot,
then I would never be able to find it.



Mort are you looking at the abooks outside of SM?? If so, stop wasting
your time, they will always look like garbage. It only matters what
happens to them inside of SeaMonkey


The frustrating thing is that those 3 abook files are there someplace on
my hard drive, but not in SM where they should be. At least I still have
my Collected Addresses icon and file.


If you did a Windows Find File and Folder, looking for abook.mab, and
then set Windows up so that you can see all the sub-folders, then you
would be able to import them into SeaMonkey, to see if they are useful.


Hi Daniel,

Again, many thanks.
1) I looked up several books, Googled, etc., and still do not know how
to see all the subfolders.


After some Googleing, try "Open Windows Explorer. click on Organize - 
Folder & search options

View
(.) show hidden files and folders"
(I'm not using Windows, so cannot check these instructions, but I'm 
guessing they are o.k., but might need a bit of adjustment dependent on 
which version of Windows you are using.)



2) When I manage to get one of my abook.mab into where it should be it
is gone the next time I boot up.


When you find your abook files, open SeaMonkey and click on 
Edit->Mail&Newsgroup Account Settings, then select "Server Settings" for 
your Mail Account.


Look at Local directory (bottom of screen) for the location of your 
profile. If needs be, click into that space and arrow across to the 
right so you can see the full address. Write down the location.


Close this Window, close SeaMonkey. Open your Windows Explorer and make 
your way to the location you noted. You may even have to go a level or 
two lower to find your abook.mab file as you noted its location in the 
search a couple of days ago.


Right click on your abook.mab and select to rename it, then give it a 
name you will remember. Then, in Windows Explorer, locate one of the 
other abook.mab files and cut it from where it is and paste it where the 
now re-named abook.mab was.


Open Seamonkey, click on the Address book Icon in the bottom left of the 
SeaMonkey screen and see if it displays correctly.


If not, close SeaMonkey and Cut & Paste another Addressbook into the 
required location, and so on until either you find the abook you want or 
you've tried them all.


Report Back.

My Drafts folder...

[Keith Whaley]

I’m working with SM 1.1.18, and Mac OS 10.6.5.

My Draft folder has a single message listed in the Total messages column, 
except there are no messages displayed in the Subject window.
Since there are no messages in the folder, View>Message Source will not 
work, either.


I assume there’s some pointer file somewhere that keeps falsely indicating I 
have a Draft message, that I can delete, but what is it?
