How to attach a signature to an outgoing SeaMonkey 2 Mail & Newsgroups
How to attach a signature to an outgoing SeaMonkey 2 Mail & Newsgroups e-mail. Yes, this is lengthy, but I've been Googling for the last 2 hours and couldn't find exactly what I wanted, so I figured it out by myself. So, maybe this will help someone. (Note for the below text, IE call bookmarks 'Favorites, and SeaMonkey calls then 'Bookmarks, in case you haven't run into this before.) Also note that having a Signature (and if you're familar with word processing programs), a Signature is very similar to a 'macro', which is automatically attaching something to a document without having to type it in everytime, such as a letterhead, contact phone numbers or fax numbers, etc. 1) Open Seamonkey 2. 2) Open Mail & Newsgroups by : a) Clicking on the tiny Mail & Newsgroups icon on bottom left of the browser, b) At the top menu, click Window then Mail & Newsgroups, c) Press the Control button (Ctrl) and number 2 key at the same time. (Ctrl + 2) 3) When the Mail & Newsgroups window opens, 4) Click on the top level account name (left pane of the window) (I sometimes use a couple but I'm just using 1 right now, and I've named it (during the setup of mail) 'Windstream Mail' at the initial setup of Mail & Newsgroups, the first time you ever open it where it asks for your desired user name, your POP3 servers, etc. However, you can easily change the name of it later, if you want. 5) So, click on the top level account (they are in bold letters) and then click on (in the right pane of the window) View settings for this account. 6) The Account Settings windows opens. 7) Here you can change all sorts of your account settings, but we're only worried about our Signature for right now. These are changed in the areas that say: a) Signature text, Use HTML (or not). You can type your desired Signature right here in text, but you can also use HTML code in this box, if you want to get fancy with it. :) b) Or, alternatively, you can use text file, (like a file created in Notepad) all the text and/or HTML, links to other sites, a small picture or logo, etc. c) To use the text and/or code that you created in a text file, put a checkmark by Attach the signature from a file instead: d) After that, all you have to do is click the Choose... button and navigate to where your signature file that you made is located. I put mine in the SeaMonkey folder itself, but you can put it anywhere at all. I'm using Windows 7 with Seamonkey 2.0.12 (just SeaMonkey 2 , really), so where I put mine is here ( > means next step) Start button>User name at top right>AppData>Roaming>Mozilla>SeaMonkey>Profiles> a folder that begins with '8a16g8mg' .default To simplify, it's the only folder here and it ends with '.default', what it begins with is different for everybody. Now you're in your SeaMonkey profile folder where your address book, history, bookmarks, etc. are located. It just seems to me that it's also a good place to put my Signature file. However, it DEFINITELY won't hurt if you keep a copy of it somewhere else. I always (and never fail to do so) get copies from this folder: a) address.mab - (IMPORTANT) all your address book, with all your friends, family, work, etc. addresses you've accumulated is kept. b) bookmarks.html (ABSOLUTELY essential) (mine has over 200 sites and/or particular pages of a site, pictures or files.) c) history.mab (OPTIONAL, in my opinion) which is a history of where all you've visited. I personally don't care about this. I never use my history to go back to places I've been; I use my Bookmarks, which is probably why it's monstrous, :) d) After you've saved these files to a safe place, you may want to go back here (SeaMonkey profile folder) periodically to get the fresher versions of these files. e) If you've had a disaster of some sort and have to completely re-install SeaMonkey, just drag and drop these files back into your new SeaMonkey folder or Import them. i) bookmark.html - For me, the easiest way to 'import' (which technically is done by clicking the File button on the top of the browser window, then select 'Import and Export... then go through the steps as what you want import etc.). ii) I simply copy my previously saved files (hopefully you have saved the files I mentioned above because if not, you have nothing to copy here or Import (except maybe your Internet Explorer Favorites.) into the SeaMonkey profile folder (same location you navigated to before) then close SeaMonkey and re-open.

Please do note that the problem is not the "Internet" (is only the WWW) but only a very small percentage of "webmasters without clue". You can Google for "browser sniffing" to read up on it. Frequently, when I encounter a site with broken sniffing, I will drop a note to the webmaster/contact/company president or whomever seems appropriate for the site in question, and politely and tastefully advise them of the error of their ways. Further, in nearly all cases sniffing would not be necessary at all, if only the sites were designed/written to conform to Web Standards. -- -bts -Four wheels carry the body; two wheels move the soul ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

I have searched for this inbox.msf and cannot locate this folder. After I first start SeaMonkey I still get the error about once every 50 or so messages.

Then at the bottom of the window is a Local Directory, listing the path to your e-mail folder on the hard drive. You will find inbox.msf here. Danny Ok still there after I deleted file. An more suggestions ? With the cursor in any folder in this account, do File | Compact folders. BTW, when deleting any msf file, you'll get the best results if you do it with the program closed. I do the file/Compact Folders twice a week just to be sure. And BTW, It will NOT let you delete the .msf file with the program open. Still getting it so any more suggestions ? Richard, how about closing SM totally (including the Quick Launch feature if you use it), open your file manager and locate your inbox file. Rena me the inbox file (the one with-out the .msf) to something different, inbox_broken maybe. Delete the inbox.msf file again. Now re-start SM. A new, empty inbox will be created. Does this fix your problem?? Daniel I did this sir and had no problem. It did create a new folder in my inbox called inbox_broken with all my old messages in it. I want to install the newest SeaMonkey but I do not want to lose all my old e-mails. Richard, when you install the latest SM Ver 2.0.12, it will import your default SM 1.1.18 profile, so your new, empty, inbox, your sent folder and I think the inbox_broken will all be imported into your new SM profile.
