I know it specifically mentions working with G4/G5 Macs, but might also work with your Growl!! (at least until the V 2 comes out!!) Assuming that the PPC build is based on plain-Jane 2.19 source with minimal changes, it, too, will be missing the old Growl support and will have XUL notifications implemented. Not a bad idea and thanks for the thought, though. Unfortunately, there will be no Growl later than 1.2.2 for Snow Leopard. From Growl 1.3 onwards, minimum OS supported is Lion. That said, despite the hangover I downloaded Mitar's Growl New Message Notification 0.4.2 for Thunderbird from his git repository and have started the task of getting that extension working with SeaMonkey. As it's my first time doing anything with an extension beyond installing it, it's a slow go. I did manage to get the proper SeaMonkey declaration in the install.rdf file and changed the app specification from Thunderbird. The preferences dialog's Test now successfully talks to Growl. So, some small success. I still haven't quite sussed out exactly what needs to be done to get it to trigger on new mail, though. :) Cheers, trane Best of luck and/or skill, Trane. -- Daniel User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:21.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/21.0 SeaMonkey/2.18 Build identifier: 20130418192405 or User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:23.0) Gecko/20100101 SeaMonkey/2.20 Build identifier: 20130709211044 ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Deleting Domain history (vaguely related to the thread above)
Sometimes I decide to delete some of the Cookie / Permissions / Preferences / Passwords / Storage settings for selected Websites. That does not have to mean all 5 sets - sometimes just one or two of them. Just doing that on a few sites frequently causes Seamonkey to suicide. Just like that it is gone, Mail Window, Browser Window, Downloads Window (if open), gone. When I restart it, whatever I wanted to delete is gone. I have not seen any collateral damage. This is not a big deal because I can plan for it (close most windows, no actual damage anyway) but I wondered if this instability is common.

FireFox and Thunderbird don't work seamlessly together. if you click on a Mailto in a website it opens a Blank webpage before it opens Thunderbird and doesn't populate the email address into the blank message. I've reported this to bugizaal numerous times and nothing is done about it. If you open Apple Mail.app and set the default Mail app the to app of your choice it will work seamlessly - a Mailto link should open your choice of mail app, but you have to set the default in Mail.app. My default is Mail.app, but because SM is a contained suite it defaults to SM Mail even though my default is Mail.app. If I ever transition to Safari/Thunderbird I'll set TB as my default but still keep Mail.app open on my desktop for non-browsing use. When I have had TB and FF I have set mail to TB and and web browsing to FF still have the issues with the intervening blank web Page and the unfilled out to: in the address.

Besides, once Apple stops supporting Snow Leopard and I'm forced to upgrade to Lion, the last thing I want to use is Mail.app with its full-screen mode. Ick. YMMV an' all that. :) trane I haven't upgraded to 10.8 and was suspicious of 10.7 because of full screen apps until I got my Mini - at least with 10.7 you have an option to go full screen or not, and from what I've seen of ML it's pretty much the same...but I haven't really seen much of the bigger cat. I have had a brief encounter with Windoze 8 and real full screen apps and found it absolutely, 110%, *HATEFUL*. So I feel your pain. Supported or not, my SnoLep machines will never be upgraded...and my 10.7 machine probably won't be either. The only way I'll ever get ML will be to buy a new machine, and even then I'll likely partition and install a reversion - back to 10.6.8 if I have to. I use Mountain Lion (OSX.8.x) all the time and you switch to full screen mode by click on a button that lookes like two arrows one point to upper left and one lower right. Click on that and it goes full screen. to get out either press the esc key or just mouse up to very top of page where the menu autmagically reappears then mouse over to the same arrow button this time its highlighted in bright blue. Click on it and full screen disappears. The biggest thing I don't like and have turned off saving backups that you can remove to desktop. and spaces which I don't use. When I switch to (Mavericks OSX.9.x) there will be additional crap I will have to turn off. In applications that are setup for Mountain Lion (OSX.8.x) there is no Save As but a Duplicate feature however Apple put it back after the outcry from users you have to hold down Option Key then ⌘-S I was one of the ones to put up a fuss. Using Save you append the changed material to the end of the document with Pointer to make and view and Print correctly. The problem with this is; it makes the document more complex and easier to corrupt and Break. Using Save As you make a fresh new document with all the appended material placed in proper position and all the pointers removed that were at the end of the document. This makes the document more efficient, compact, and removes any possible corruption. In the new duplicate feature your just making an exact copy of the saved document with all the appendages.

If you look at it from MS's perspective, as Word as a do-all text processor for documents, text, and HTML, then it makes some sense. Not a lot, but /some/. Assuming (as Word does) that you /might/ be composing an HTML doc, when you highlight, hit Copy, Word assumes you want to also copy all the underlying code along with the text. Okay, in our discussion here, we do NOT want ANY of the underlying code. Still, for users who don't know any better and who use Word to make HTML files this makes some sense. Of course, in the real world (people who actually know what the hell they're doing) it makes no sense at all. I'm not certain of the underlying code and functions in SeaMonkey but I suspect that SM is doing what it probably should: Pasting what's on the Windows clipboard (put there by Word) ... INCLUDING all the crap that MS Word includes. The not-so-elegant answer is to do what's been suggested up-thread: Copy from Word, paste into a plain-text editor (Notepad etc.), highlight, copy, then paste into SM.
