... is for my dozen or
so computer usage groups, however.

For the past few days, this second account has been timing out, so I've
got no access to these groups.

The first account works, but (as you're probably aware) there's very
little activity on any of the general groups, some but not much!

I cannot recall anything I've done which might have broken this second
account!

Has anybody got any suggestions as to how I can get the account
responding correctly?? Should I remove the account entries from the
password manager and hope I get asked to enter them, again?? Any other
suggestions??

TIA

Lee, thanks for the response, but note for the future ... If someone 
post to a group/list, then chances are they will be checking the 
group/list for any responses, so there is no need for you to post to 
their email account as well!! No biggie!!


I wouldn't expect Teranews to go changing their server IP address 
without telling people it's going to happen, but it seems something has 
changed, so I might have to change the address, as you suggest.

problems with Formito

2013-07-15 Thread David H. Durgee
I have been using Formito for a while to remember and fill in login 
information that neither SeaMonkey nor remember passwords extension 
saves on web pages that use cryptic account numbers or other such 
information to control access.  This has worked well in the past, but 
lately I am encountering problems where for some reason the extension 
does not work.  It stores a SQLite database with its information in my 
profile, and the SQLite Manager is able to access that data and it 
passes database checks.  The contents are encrypted, so it is useless 
without the extension operating.


Is anyone else using Formito?  If so, has anyone found a way to get it 
to work when it decides not to?  I have saved the form data elsewhere at 
this point so I can bypass it, but it is much more convenient to use.

It is rarely a good idea to use an IP address in place of a domain name.

If a server has to be taken out of service for maintenance or repair,
its replacement will have a different IP address.  That replacement,
however, might only be temporary, which means you will have to keep
changing the IP address to which you refer.

Furthermore, where servers are mirrored (several identical servers, all
with the same domain name), a particular server -- with its unique IP
address -- might be allowed to die without replacement.

Re: SeaMonkey/2.19 on Linux nuked all messages in InBox and ALL folders underneath

2013-07-15 Thread Bill Davidsen

Michael Lueck wrote:

Greetings,

I had a most odd / scary thing happen this morning. I was sending an email via a
SM POP account with a few MB of files attached to it. I remember accidentally
clicking / doing something while it was sending via my SMTP (TLS) connection...
and POOF that account's InBox went blank, and ALL sub-folders under the InBox
have vanished. No pop-up message box what so ever was seen.

There is no trace of them in the profile filesystem. This account's Inbox.sbd is
completely empty.

At the command line I changed up to the Mail directory and did find | grep foo
where Foo is the name of folders which existing under that account's InBox.
(Being careful to observe PrettyCase since this is a CaSe sEnSiTiVe filesystem I
am dealing with.) NO TRACE of where the folders went.

The files for the InBox are as follows:

-rw---  1 mdlueck mdlueck 46285982 Jul 13 09:45 Inbox
-rw-rw-r--  1 mdlueck mdlueck 2146 Jul 13 10:19 Inbox.msf
-rw-rw-r--  1 mdlueck mdlueck67775 Jul 13 09:50 Inbox.ORIG.msf

I renamed off the folder index .msf file and rebuilt that folder's index. Though
the Inbox data file has messages in it, they do not show up.

Suggestions other than roll that account back to my most recent profile backup?

Can you fall back to 2.17.1 and try the rebuild option again? That is wildly 
odd, and whatever you do, don't compact your folders or you really will lose 
everything. From the file sizes I'm guessing that you somehow marked those 
messages but they're still in the message file.


You might be able to run the file through a tool like awk or sed and reset the 
flags which say the message is deleted. I remember doing that for some other 
reason once, renamed the Inbox, ran it through awk, saved the output as Inbox 
and rebuilt the index. You might scan the file with less or similar and see that 
it has what you are missing.

System configuration:
Ubuntu 12.04 x64
XFS filesystem
SeaMonkey via UbuntuZilla, so the official Mozilla binaries

Sincerely,

What is the silver bullet about that particular build of SM?

I suppose I could force the UbuntuZilla package for that version to get back to 
that version.

Sometimes I double click when I should not; consequently

Is there any reason that SeaMonkey allows multiple launches?



My preferences are set to open a new tab when a Web link requests a new
window.  However, my preferences are also set to open a new window if a
non-browser application requests to display a Web page.  Thus, multiple
windows are not bad.


The way I read Rick's post is that he starts SM (browser and/or Mail as
appropriate), and then, because he's double-double clicked on the
desk-top icon, he gets a totally seperate second copy of SM (browser
and/or Mail as appropriate).


You don't have to do it that way. Double-click on a Mail/News folder or
account name and a second Mail/News window will open. And of course
there are lots of ways of opening a new browser window. Neither of these
means that more than one instance of SeaMonkey is running.

If I double-click on the SM desktop icon, or if I type the keyboard
shortcut I use to launch SM, or if I navigate through the Start menu to
the SeaMonkey program, any of these while SM is running, all I get is a
transfer of focus to the running instance of SM. A second one does not
launch as for example with MS Word. If I click a link more than once, I
get multiple copies of that browser window, but still only one instance
of the SM program.

So I'd say it's perfectly safe to close the extra window if you don't
need it. Don't worry about competing instances of the program writing to
the same mail/news folders.


But I think Rick wants to stop the double starting from happening in the first 
place!



True:-) but it really is my problem - I only asked because many other 
applications
do prevent multiple copies.  Yes, I sometimes do use multiple browser windows
and sometimes multiple tabs.

At any rate, I am not a happy camper.

Any suggestions on how to fix this? I don't like having to take the time 
to recover my computer and check that the files have not been corrupted 
by the unceremonious shutdown.


Also, anyone know why e2fsck clears orphaned inodes instead of attaching 
them to the appropriate lost+found directory?
