Rufus, you seem to be referring to opening a _file_ or _alias_ (what we
on the Windows world known as a shortcut) with an alternate program.
(By the way, Windows also has the open with feature at the file
level). Wolfgang was referring to opening an HTML link from within
Seamonkey, which is a different problem.

Re: Request For Email Scam Detection Enhancement

2013-09-10 Thread MCBastos
Interviewed by CNN on 09/09/2013 19:10, Rob told the world:

 Apparently the mails sent by Flyertalk.com do contain the deceiving
 links that SeaMonkey classifies as likely scam.
 
 I don't know what kind of mails Flyertalk.com is sending, but when
 it is some service that has user accounts and is vulnerable to phishing,
 you do not want a whitelist based on sender Flyertalk.com because that
 would mean anyone can send messages from Flyertalk.com and they would
 never be marked as scam.

FWIW, I believe that the thing that triggers the possible scam warning
in Thunderbird/Seamonkey is this:

- A piece of text which appears to be an URL
- Which links to a DIFFERENT URL

Like this:a
href=http://www.maliciousite.com/installvirus.php;http://www.fluffybunnies.com/winaprize//a

What does is check before before sending. You type the spell check pops

Perhaps you never received anything that Seamonkey classes as

forward you something that Seamonkey false-detects as a scam
on my machine (the regular mailing from Flyertalk.com).

It does not matter that much.  I can identify scams easily enough 
(usually just from the subject line).  The scam identifier has the

I'm referring to both, actually.  In OS X (and I'm thinking Win as

web page and onto the Desktop to create an Alias (the link) - from 
there you can simply cntrl+click (right click) and get and Open With 
contextual menu that will allow you to open that link with any browser 
installed on your machine by simply choosing the one you wish - this 
would be the way to do it without an add-on and using drag and drop, as 
previously suggested elsewhere.


But it *would* be really nice to see this ability contained within SM, 
seeing as it is a feature of the OS X interface itself.  I only recently 
discovered that you can do this within Safari if you enable Developer 
Menu in Safari Prefs - which also gets you the ability to invoke browser 
spoofing.


...I'm becoming more and more interested in Safari.

I'm using a Mac with 10.7.5 on a late 2006 24 iMac.

Spell check works as it always has. Check as you type, spell check 
before sending an email work as expected. I have never experienced spell 
checking to cause a crash. Maybe you have something wrong with your Mac 
setup; maybe you have an extension installed that is not compatible with 
spell checking and causing the crash?


Spell checking works fine on my Mac.

OK, there seems to be some miscommunication here. THe OP mentions IE,
which hasn't been available on Macs for a few years; I'm *guessing* the

SeaMonkey cert exception window not showing on XP Pro?

2013-09-10 Thread Desiree
I don't use my older XP Pro computer much now but I had updated SeaMonkey to 
2.20 when it first was out and then didn't use it till now. Where's the cert 
exception window? Is it removed?  I have GoDaddy and Comodo (and all Comodo 
related) authorities as untrusted for years in all browsers. I want to be 
alerted by my browsers when a site uses a cert from one of these 
authorities. I make an exception many times but not always. Sometimes I make 
one time exceptions and with a few sites I trust permanent exceptions. 
Mozilla browsers make the process convoluted...Opera handles it much more 
gracefully.

But using SeaMonkey on XP Pro just now, I did not get the cert exception 
window when I tried to login to the site I use as my home page. It now uses 
secure login only (for many years it had both types of login and I used the 
non-secure) and it uses a GoDaddy cert. Instead of getting the exceptions 
window, I got an error message instead Invalid OCSP signing certificate. 
I got that because GoDaddy certs are untrusted but what I needed was the 
certs exception window so I could add an exception!  Opera 12.16 on XP Pro, 
threw the same error and then very gracefully asked me if I wanted to make 
an exception and it took me two seconds to make the exception and get logged 
in.  It was time consuming and convoluted to figure out how to do the 
exception now on SeaMonkey and I had to import the cert from another browser 
as SeaMonkey balked at getting it.
