On the bottom right, it shows Local directorythis is the location of your profile, so is the location of your prefs.js file and should be the location for any future user.js file. Agreed, this does indeed tally with the location of my profile. But is this sufficiently reliable that we could recommend this route to everyone ? As the local directory can be specified using the browse button, would it not be possible for someone to select a root for other than their profile location for their mail directory ? It seems to me that the alternative (via Help / Troubleshooting) should work in all cases, whereas the mail directory location could fail in some circumstances. Philip Taylor I would suspect that if you used the Browse button to select a different location, SM would expect to find a profile structure at this different location!! If you wanted to locate your profile somewhere else, you would select Tools-Switch Profiles-Manage Profiles-Create Profile and tell it where you want your new profile!! -- Daniel ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Seamonkey e-mail compose options
Although in general I prefer to control where my line breaks are when composing e-mails, the re-wrap functionality that is exposed when I configure Seamonkey to automatically wrap at or before column 72 has many benefits when re-cycling (i.e., quoting) parts of the message to which I am replying in my own reply. However, once I enable wrapping, I am unable to physically differentiate between soft wrapping and hard wrapping, as a result of which I quite frequently send out messages with at least one line of length nearly 144 characters. My question is therefore this : is there any (concealed) option for Seamonkey that would allow me to identify soft line breaks when composing e-mails in plain text ? And if not, is there any option that would allow me to identify hard line breaks ? The former would be better, since I would hope that there are relatively few, but the latter would be better than nothing.

Special folder names?
Can someone provide a list of special folder names in SeaMonkey? I know for example, that Inbox, Sent, etc. are special because they always appear at top and cannot be alphabetized, etc. In particular, I'm wondering about one called Archives, which I don't recall creating, has no contents, and cannot be moved or deleted.

As I understand it, SeaMonkey will first try using the Gnome settings, if that fails it then falls back to XFCE if available and if that fails, it gives up. That makes sense. If it reads the XFCE settings directly from the XFCE config files, maybe just creating the files will work for people who don't have XFCE.
