Most popups are done in JavaScript, and Mozilla popup blocking works by disabling the JavaScript open unrequested window function that is used to make that happen. You may wish to allow popups for some sites. For example, there are sites that open a popup to queue a download. Meanwhile, you might want to take a look at the NoScript extension. NoScript blocks *all* scripting activity unless the site in in a whitelist. It defaults to blocking JavaScript, but can also block Java, Flash, and Microsoft Silverlight.

Then reestablish -- I don't /think/ SM would load content for a message already composed, but the experts will tell us. Alright! That seemed to work: I click the little connector in the lower right, click Forward, then click the Send button (which now shows Send Later because the connection is open), click the little connector, click OK to the Send messages now dialog, and off it goes. When I received it at my other account, it still did not have the remote content. A little clunky, but it works! Thanks! A couple of notes on this option: 1) If you're forwarding the message as HTML and the recipient has his program set up to load remote content, it will do so in order to display the HTML -- even if you did not send the remote content. You did send instructions to load the remote content, after all. 2) The consequence of this is that if someone /else/ loads a web bug intended for you, it will have the same effect as if /you/ loaded it -- the spammer will detect that it was loaded and realize that you're a live one. Still, the message as sent will not actually include the remote content, so it will be lightweight for purposes of message size in transmission. -- War doesn't determine who's right, just who's left. -- Paul B.

Can you help me? If your mailing list is still operating for the moment, you should still be able to post your message to the entire list the way you normally would. If your concern is that recipients will not be able to reply (because the list is vanishing), make sure your content includes a note telling them where they can reply. An explicit Reply-To setting might work, depending on your list settings, but to be absolutely sure, put the reply-to address in the body of your message. But if you must do it the hard way, take and save the list you created as a .CSV or LDIF file, import it into SM as an address book (with a different name from all your other address books!), and then when composing, just select all from that address book: Click the Address button, choose the address book from the pull-down list at top, select select any recipient, CTRL-A selects all, click Bcc. -- War doesn't determine who's right, just who's left. -- Paul B.

Re: Exporting mail into outlook (PST)
Interviewed by CNN on 8/4/2010 10:13, Yalmez Yazaw told the world: How do I export my emails into a format that I can use in outlook? I imagine that you must have reasons to take such a step, although I can't imagine what they would be. Anyway, it's Outlook's fault, mostly -- they don't offer a flexible enough import process that would work with Mozilla/Thunderbird/Seamonkey mbox files. What it does import reliably is Outlook Express. But OE does not import mbox either... so, what to do? Well, you can drag-and-drop .eml-format email messages into OE. Then you can import from OE to Outlook easily. Unfortunately, Thunderbird and Seamonkey have no easy way to export messages to .eml (it's one of those things that are perenially in the to-do list, it seems...) So what you need is some way to convert mbox files into .eml files. There's a free tool called IMAPsize that will do it. Full instructions (for Thunderbird, but will work with Seamonkey too) here: http://www.broobles.com/imapsize/th2outlook.php The reverse process is easier: as long as you have Outlook installed, Thunderbird and Seamonkey can import the messages in a single step. I don't know what's the problem with the e-mail guys at Microsoft... they don't seem to grasp the idea that people might have been using other products before. I mean, I get the concept of not making it easy to switch to another product -- it's evil, it's despicable, but I can understand the reasoning; other evil products, like Incredimail, do the same. What I don't get is not making it easy to convert *into* your product. *Even from another Microsoft product.* I spent several hours today converting e-mails and contacts from Outlook 2003 (Windows) to Entourage (Mac) for a customer. The job is made quite complicated because: - Entourage can't import from Windows Outlook, only from Mac Outlook 2001 -- and that only with a plugin. - Mac Outlook 2001 can't import the new PST file format Outlook 2003 uses. - Outlook 2001 is a Classic app, that is, it was designed to run on MacOS 9 in a PowerPC machine, although it could run under the Classic Environment on OSX. The problem is that newer Macs, being Intel-based, no longer offer the Classic environment. So, the rather contrived way to do this, if you go by the Microsoft references, is: 1. Open Outlook 2003, create an old-style PST file and copy your stuff into it. Mind the 2 Gb file size limit, though. 2. Find an older Mac and install BOTH Outlook 2001 (available as a free download) and Entourage (commercial, expensive app) in it. Also install the Outlook import plugin in Entourage. 3. Copy/move the old-style PST files to the Mac. 4. Import the old-style PST files into Outlook 2001. 5. Import the Outlook 2001 content into Entourage. 6. Copy the Entourage mail store to the new Mac. Yes, boys and girls. If you go by the fully-Microsoft party line, you have to do THREE conversion steps and TWO move-from-a-computer-to-another steps. Good luck keeping your sanity. Not having an old Mac available, I had to look into alternate ways to do it. I found the following options: A) Use a mail server (Exchange or IMAP). Move the messages from Outlook into the server, then download them into Entourage. Feasible, but I didn't have a server handy. B) Purchase a commercial product to export Outlook messages into a more convenient format. c) Import the messages from Outlook into Thunderbird, copy the mail store to Mac, then import the Mbox folders into Entourage (which involve a few extra steps, because you have to change the mbox file extension to .MBX and set their Mac attributes as a text file) I eventually went with option C. It took a while, but it worked. Address book conversion went much worse, though. Apparently M$ is ditching Entourage and will replace it with a new Outlook for Mac next year. I hope they have the sense of making it read Windows Outlook file formats at the very least. I would like for better support for reading and writing mbox files (it's the native format in Entourage, so they *should* support it), but I'm not holding my breath for it. -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm.
