Seamonkey not asking for user name in newsgroup

[Eric]

Need a little help here.

I put the wrong user name in to a newsgroup and told seamonkey to 
remember it, now I can't put the correct one in, just the password, 
which doesn't get me anywhere because of the wrong user name.


Suggestions.

TIA

Open the SM Password Manager and delete the entry for the erroneous user 
name - deleting the password should delete the pair.


Then go back, log in, and have SM remember the correct entries.

I guess you're seeing bug 735940. TB spun a 11.0.1 release including a 
fix for that, we didn't (and AFAIK we're not planning to do so, but 
would probably include it if we had to do an oilspill release with 
security fixes for 2.8). It'll be fixed in 2.9, though.

Frog, first a couple of things to see if your e: profile works:-

1.   Have a look at Tools->Switch Profiles. Do you see more than one 
profile listed, and, if so, is one of the others your missing profile on 
E:\ Drive??


2.   In your current profile, have a look at Edit->Mail & Newsgroups

"Local directory:" at the bottom of this screen, Browse to where you 
think you set up your new profile on the E:\. O.K. your way out. Are you

Report back and we'll see what we need to do next.

This problem is probably specific to Opensuse 11.2 Evergreen.  The
current level is seamonkey-2.6.1-1.1.i586, but I have had this problem
for a while - older levels were definitely affected.

I have 3 systems running 11.2 Evergreen.  Two are 32-bit systems and the
third is running the 64-bit version.  All three have the same problem.

When I want to send a mail I have prepared, Seamonkey dies immediately.
   The Browser window(s), Mail window, all gone.  Restarting reopens my
browser sessions but the version of the mail in "Drafts" is a few
minutes old.
The only error messages I see are the two lines below:

seamonkey-bin: misc.c:39: px_malloc0: Assertion `mem != ((void *)0)' failed.
/usr/bin/seamonkey: line 127:  4213 Aborted $MOZ_PROGRAM
"$@"



Looks to be similar to this from Oct 2011:

[2.4.1 problems, part I: Mail crashes it all!]


Current SM package: 2.0.14-0.2.1 x86_64 (repo 11.2 Update).
Tried: 2.4-1.1 x86_64 (repo 11.2 Evergreen).



My suspicion is th

at Seamonkey is depending on some feature of glibc (or

similar) which my older version does not provide.
glibc-2.10.1-10.11.1.i586

Obviously the level information is for one of the 32-bit systems.  All
three systems are kept "up to date".  I'm just guessing as to the cause,
could someone who understands this stuff say more?


Have you checked your distro bug reports for the same/similar issue? I'm
not familiar with openSUSE (I use Ubuntu/Debian/Fedora), but it looks as
if your distro 11.2 has moved along to 2.8:

http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Evergreen_11.2
List of updates for 11.2 from Evergreen
These are the updates for openSUSE 11.2 made by the Evergreen project.
The list is sorted with latest updates first.
[seamonkey released Bug #750044 see changelog ver. 2.8]

-  https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=750044

That would also indicate to me that they provide all of the necessary
packages/libs to run SeaMonkey 2.8. Perhaps you can/should upgrade?


I have been keeping "up to date" using the 11.2 Evergreen Repo.  I just 
checked on one of the Evergreen machines and the newest level available 
there is the one I have installed.  Yes, I now see that the Opensuse 
Evergreen link says 2.8 is available but neither of the standard update 
tools (zypper and YaST) agree.  Nor does
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/openSUSE:/Evergreen:/11.2/standard/ia64/ 
- no Seamonkey at all, the i586 branch just shows the old level.


Although the abort I get is the same as in your October 2011 link, the 
circumstances are different.  The one you pointed me at was an abort as 
soon as Mail was clicked / loaded.  In my case I can read mails/news 
with no problems at all, I discovered yesterday that I can write to this 
Newsgroup (the only one I ever write to).  My abort comes when I click 
to send a mail.


Looks like I need to submit a bug report against 11.2 Evergreen, at 
least for the missing products.

Thank you for filling in some gaps - I was looking in the wrong place.

Answer to question 1:  I see default and Frog/Barb...neither being my 
old SeaMonkey profile.


Answer to question 2:  Local directory: E:\SeaMonkey

recently created Frog/Barb profile resides is E:\SeaMonkeyProfile, and 
this folder includes a sub-folder Mail\incoming.verizon.net.

Here is a P.S. to my earlier message.

I only find default and FrogBarb listed in my 2.8 listing.

I have Frog-SeaM listed in my 1.1.19 listing.

I don't have SeaMonkey listed in either listing.

Re: Mail filters turn off - SM 2.7.2

[denewton]

Bill Davidsen a écrit :

Not a new issue, been around for a while, perhaps someone has a clur?

I have kind of a lot of mail filters on my business mailbox, and every
once in a while, 3-4 times a month, I see messages which shoukld have
gone into subfolders of various kinds. When I scan the filters from the
_tools_ menu, I see that the filter has become unchecked and is not
active. Checking it and running by hand solves the immediate problem,
but does anyone have a good idea why this happens?

I don't see this in smaller mail or newsgroups accounts, but I am not
confident that it's only related to mail volume.

I suspect for 64bit you'd use this one:

Unless of course you are running an Itanium processor... For that you'd
have ask if anyone has built an ia64 version.

This 11.2 repo shows seamonkey-2.7.2-2.2.i586.rpm:
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/mozilla/openSUSE_11.2/i586/
And the same for 64bit:
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/mozilla/openSUSE_11.2/x86_64/
[seamonkey-2.7.2-2.2.x86_64.rpm]

The 2.8 Evergreen versions are here:

[seamonkey-2.8-2.1.i586.rpm]

[seamonkey-2.8-2.1.x86_64.rpm]

As I mentioned, I only use Ubuntu/Debian/Fedora, so I'm not familiar
with openSUSE and/or Evergreen. Sorry I can't be of more help.

Just a guess. Renaming mimeTypes.rdf in the profile when SM is closed?
On Linux i would grep the profile for x-zip, but i do not know what can
be done on Win.

Bookmarks opening into new tabs

[Rubens]

Hello all,


A long time ago, when using SeaMonkey 1.1.19 altogether with the 
Multizilla extension,
it was possible to open bookmarks directly into a new tab, without 
affecting any

previously opened tabs.

Is there there any add-on or configuration which can maintain this behaviour
in Seamonkey 2.8 ?


Thanks,

I just reset two filters for comp.sys.mac.apps:

1. Google groups:
Match all of the following
X-Complaints-To contains groups-ab...@google.com
Action: whatever suits you - I selected
Tag Message To Do
Mark As Read
(simply so that I could easily still see the offending posts)

2. Crosspost:
Match all of the following
Newsgroups contains ,
Action:
Mark as Flagged
Tag Message Later

Note: you can of course filter on a specific cross posted newsgroup(s)
such as 'alt.support.boy...'. or 'alt.politics...' etc instead of just
comma (,). Using just a comma wacks them all and you'll find guys like
Ant like to comp.sys.mac.apps, comp.sys.mac.system - just tell him to
stop cross posting (it's pretty rude to do it for every post anyway), or
filter him in by setting a filter for comp.sys.mac.system with an action
of 'Stop Filter Execution'

I turned the Filter logging on, and I then subscribed to
comp.sys.mac.apps, downloaded 1500 headers & marked the others as read.
Click on Help when you are in the filter composition window & then read
the section on 'Tip: Message filters are applied one after another.' so
that you understand how to set the priorities.

Here are some samples from the filter (I've taken the liberty of
snipping some of the possibly offensive words, and also a portion of the
email address):

Of course there are lots more, and I could have used 'Delete Message'
etc. Actually, 'Ignore the thread' and/or 'Ignore the subthread' are IMO
better choices. That way you won't see the thread/subthread at all, but
can turn ignored thread/subthreads back on to see a post that you may
have missed but want to now see/review.

My suggestion is that you turn off all filters that you currently have
for that newsgroup, set the two I've shown you plus the filter log, then
unsubscribe and resubscribe. Try just the flagged/tagged first so that
you can see what is being flagged/tagged. Then once you're happy, reset
for 'Ignore the thread' and/or 'Ignore the subthread'. Unsubscribe &
resubscribe again. Note: the reason for unsubscribing and resubscribing
is so that filters can work on older posts that you don't want to see.
Otherwise, they will only work on newly posted messages.

Well, if you just want to do it now and then... middle-clicking on the
bookmark works.

To *always* open in a new tab... I don't know. One of the various
tab-enhancer extensions might offer this functionality. But I don't have
this information.

Re: Seamonkey not asking for user name in newsgroup

Need a little help here.

I put the wrong user name in to a newsgroup and told seamonkey to remember it,
now I can't put the correct one in, just the password, which doesn't get me
anywhere because of the wrong user name.

I would expect the entry in password manager to be reset if the login fails, 
assuming you provide a new value when prompted for retry. In any case, you can 
go into password manager and just delete the bad information.


I'm assuming that you mean you log into a news server, I don't know how a group 
would have a password, and the password manager is organized by site.


NOTE: if you are using a news server like eternal-september, it doesn't require 
a password, it just doesn't let you access some groups without one. Since it 
doesn't prompt in the NNTP protocol you need to check the "always send 
authentication" feature when setting up the site.

It's ok, but you have not used SM to send your mail.

I did. I sent it to you directly. And here was my reply (off list):

Sure I did:

ok, ok, but what do you think about.
Your mail sent: Content-Type: application/zip;
and my mail sent: Content-Type: multipart/x-zip;

I think that is the root of the problem "multipart" for a one-part attachement.


You have said this multiple times, your mail is multipart, there's a text part 
and an attachment part. And since you see the parts, Seamonkey has attached the 
data just fine.


Let me ask a question so dumb I'm ashamed to mention it: since the paper clip is 
part of the theme (and looks different in various themes), you haven't by any 
chance chosen a theme wich omits the clip from the symbol for "read mail" have 
you? You are asking this about the standard default theme?

Re Eternal-September: without registering and using a chosen unique 
username and a password, you are restricted to only about eight E-S 
support groups. They are intended for first-timers. For all the rest of 
Usenet (many thousands of groups), you must use your account ID including 
the password.

That would be so.

E-S is unlike these giganews-hosted Mozilla groups, where no account ID 
and password is required. Is that perhaps what you meant, instead of E-S?
