And, if I install 2.0.4 do I need to get rid of all previous versions ? Also, if I install 2.0.4 how can I make sure that ALL e-mail from 1.1.18 and 2.0.3 gets into 2.0.4 ? Thanks for any and all help. From what I've read here over the past few months: SM 2 installs in a different location from SM 1, and it does not continue to use the same profile. Instead, it imports (migrates) your profile and creates a new one for its own use based on the data from version 1. Therefore, you can (if you wish) continue to use both programs. However, if you do that -- if you send and receive mail with one program, and then send and receive mail with the other program, and back and forth -- each program, because it maintains its own separate profile and its own separate mail folders, will have a different set of messages. Many of them will be the same -- the ones that you imported when you first installed version 2. But any messages you sent or received with SM 1 will be stored in the SM 1 profile, and any messages you sent or received with version 2 will be stored in the SM 2 profile. As time goes by, the two sets of messages will become more and more different -- only the old messages will be the same. If you want to maintain one profile and one set of message folders, you need to make up your mind. The recommendation here is generally version 2, which fixes some important security issues. You can uninstall version 1 without harming version 2, but first you probably want to transfer the messages sent/received with version 1 since you installed version 2. If that's your decision, post back and someone will provide detailed instructions. As for 2.0.4, you should be able to install that minor update right over 2.0.3. That's the least of your worries. You can set both SM1 and SM2 to use the same settings when it comes to mail account. Just have both programs point to the same local directory in the mail account settings. Printing the various settings before doing this may be a good idea to avoid any error. To avoid any potential conflict, just refrain from using the two versions at the same time to access your mail. Of course, before you fiddle with your settings, make sure to backup all mail files (the ones without extension). And to be on the safe side, also backup your profiles. Do not *assume* that backing up your profile will backup your mail, since this is only the default location. Personally, I have SM1, SM2 and TB3 pointing at the same mail location, without any problem. But, not looking for trouble, I only use one program at the same time. -- John Doue ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Firefox does not have an address book, in fact Firefox has no email features.

Well, obviously, some people already see the current model as being coercitive, so I don't think making things harder would make them any better. People *can* use another mail application if they want to. There just really is no point in using SM in that case, though. Or, rather, when one uses SM, there is little reason to make it a point to use another mail client. After all, it makes things more unweildy and, if both are running at the same time, uses way more memory than SM would.

Yet something wont allow me to make that my default email client in SM, it opens SM's mail client for any email link I click on and wont allow it to be changed. I either get this to stop or I gotta find another browser, this is BULL! OK, I'll try to answer this in a civil manner... First, yes, Seamonkey does assume that you are going to use its integrated e-mail client, instead of checking what is the default e-mail client in the Windows settings. Since the main point of using Seamonkey instead of Firefox is exactly the e-mail integration, this is not an unreasonable assumption. However there are a few people who prefer the Seamonkey browser to Firefox but intend to use other mail clients. There is a way to change the Seamonkey behavior, although it's a hidden option. You can find the instructions here: http://seamonkey.ilias.ca/browserfaq/mailto Tried that, several suggestions ago, doesnt work. Now, I gather that you tried changing to Firefox and ran into problems, because Firefox couldn't detect your existing installation of Seamonkey. Not to mention that all my bookmarks and passwords have been stored in SM. In fact I just migrated to Win 7 from XP and finally got that mess all fixed. Firefox is nice, and all that, but just another major hassle trying to get my profile, passwords etc. all moved, especially since it wont even recognize the SM install on this computer. Since you claim to be using SM 2.0.x, I think it's likely that the Firefox guys haven't updated yet their import tool to account for the changes in SM 2. There should be a bug open for it... Bookmarks are easy to bring from SM to FF -- it's just a matter of copying one file, bookmarks.html, from the Seamonkey profile to the Firefox profile -- but things like passwords are more complicated. There's an extension that solves it. It's called Password Exporter. You can get the modified-for-Seamonkey version in Philip Chee's site: http://xsidebar.mozdev.org/modifiedmisc.html#passwordexporter I don't know if you need it to import the passwords back to Firefox, but if so, you can get the official Password Exporter for Firefox here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2848 Thanks. -- Jane Galt There is no difference between communism and socialism, except in the means of achieving the same ultimate end: communism proposes to enslave men by force, socialism - by vote.

Everybody's in this thinking rut when it comes to which browser to use. If you dont want email, you gotta use FF.

I either get this to stop or I gotta find another browser, this is BULL! I use Seamonkey 2 the same way you do (on Win2000) and have the same problem, only my default email is Thunderbird. I think it's basically a Seamonkey problem and unless the developers choose to proactively correct it, you are stuck with the situation. The one thing I do as an ersatz fix is to have Thunderbird open. If the default email program is open, then SM will invoke it. Hardly satisfactory, better than nothing.

Well I'm 60 years old and have liked netscape's browser look and feel since I first got on the net and started using Navigator in 1994. I've TRIED to stick with that, and always HATED Internet Explorer. So here we are and I prefer the browser look and feel of SM now, NOT FF. So why cant we get SM to give up its hassles with email mailto links? It's not hard, come on guys.

My opinion is that if they only want the program to be used in a certain way, then they should really get coercive about it and make mail implementation a precondition of getting the browser to launch. Well, obviously, some people already see the current model as being coercitive, so I don't think making things harder would make them any better. People *can* use another mail application if they want to. There just really is no point in using SM in that case, though. Yes there IS, that's my point. I like the look feel of the SM browser, not FF or Internet Explorer, but SM.
