Cannot start the spell list propositions when an error is in the Subject

[Ray_Net]

Hello,

When i do an error in the body part of a mail (or a news-post) i see the 
bad word  red underlined with "~" characters.
Then i select this word and click on the "Spell" button -  i receive a 
list of correct words where i can decide which one i want to replace my 
bad word.


If i do an error in the "Subject" part of a mail (or a news-post) i see 
also the bad word  red underlined with "~" characters.

BUT the "Spell" Button is greyed -  so unusable.

Two solutions to cure the problem:
1. Permit the "Spell" button to work.
2. Stop underlining bad words in the Subject.

I found only 2 bugs, and I found workarounds for both of them.  The
address book is properly sorted in the sidebar, so I can use it to get
email addresses, and open a compose window from there.  The bookmark
backups will not restore, but if one exports them as HTML, one can
import them.

To stop automatic updates, what I did was go into about:config and
change these settings:
app.update.auto -> false
app.update.enabled -> false
app.update.silent -> false


Well I cant logo into Tools > Password Manager it crashes
Also it crashes if I want to use this forum.

To me that is BAD.

What does Tools > Password Manager have to do with auto updates?




Nothing!

Disabling auto update prevents loading of SM2.29 and I want to run 
SM2.26 until these bugs will be fixed.

Just saw on the mozillaZine forums that a SM 2.29.1 is imminent.

Even if the Spell button is disabled, I would still want to know if I
misspelled a word in the Subject.

Problems followup

[Bonnell Frost]

Just a followup:  Both problems resolved.  Date sort fixed by clicking 
on date.  Missing column of folders restored with F9.

I have been having a couple problems with recent Seamonkey releases.
First one:  Missing sort for messages.  There used to be a sort option, 
which allowed sorting by date of message or by character in subject. 
Right now,
my messages are sorted by subject and I can't find any way to 
sort them otherwise.  Sort option is still available for folders and 
files in Windows 7,
but not with Seamonkey.  My Fedora 20 still is sorted by date, 
but no option available there either.  I really would like to get my 
messages sorted by date.


Second: With present versions of SM 2.26 and 2.29, there is only one 
column on the message page.  Previously there used to be a narrow column 
along the
right-hand edge with available folders so the a reader could 
access particular folder for contents.  It's still there with Fedora 20. 
 It's possible to access

using search, but a list wold be nice.

I'm a retiree with little outside contact, even though I have had a lot 
of experience.

Sort options for mail messages are under the View menu, just do View | 
Sort by... and choose whatever you like. If you look carefully, you'll 
see a pale hairline above and below "Ascending/Descending" -- that means 
you can make independent choices for "Date/Received/Flag/..." and 
"Ascending/Descending" and "Threaded/Unthreaded/Grouped by Sort."


If you set sorting parameters for one mail folder, they will apply to 
all mail folders. Newsgroup accounts are separate and you can sort them 
differently if you like, but all NG folders will sort the same way, just 
as all mail folders will sort the same way.

Yes, but i am obliged to put the Subject text in the body part, correct 
the bad word then cut and paste into the subject  houla ! :-)

So the best cure is the solution 1.

Anyway  Is filling a bug into https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/ a good 
idea ?

What happens if you right click over the misspelled word?
I just tried it and in subject line it still gives me a list of choices 
to change it to so that should work just fine for you.
I did try your method and do see the bug, but the work around in right 
click over it, which IMHO is a better way to use spell check anyway.

 Yes, I can easily PASTE either or both into a new message.

 Do us a favor and disable that autocorrupt feature that keeps
 substituting "past" for "paste."

It does seem inconsistent...

The "as you type" spell-check (red underlines) does check the subject 
line, and shows suggestions if you right-click on a misspelled word there.


The spell-check dialog ("Spell" button or Edit > Check Spelling...) only 
checks the body; it does not detect a misspelled word in the subject.


Related to this, having "Check spelling before sending" selected 
activates the spell-check dialog, so does not detect an error in the 
subject.


I'd expect all to check the same areas - ideally to include the subject 
line. Looks like it's already reported:

  https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=368915

(Also of mild amusement - there is a menu item Edit > Spellcheck As You 
Type, but "Spellcheck" as one word like that is flagged as an error by 
the spell checker...)

It seems that the two spell checkers are separate - one "as you type" 
doing the red underlines, and one which works from a dialog when you 
click "Spell". I've also noticed an occasional mismatch in which words 
the two consider correct (word underlined in red but not flagged in the 
dialog, or vice-versa). Don't think I've ever compared the two lists of 
suggestions for a word they both show as incorrect...


I can't see that one reported from a quick search, so may be worth 
reporting.

SeaMonkey includes an email client, so the assumption is that you'd be 
using it to post here. Of course, you may be using SeaMonkey just for 
the web browser and Outlook Express for email, or some other combination 
of uses. Paul offered some advice on sorting emails, assuming you were 
using SeaMonkey. Daniel noticed you're actually using Outlook, so 
pointed that out, since instructions for SeaMonkey don't necessarily apply.


BTW, when replying to digest emails it's easier for others to follow and 
see what you're replying to if you:
1. Change the subject line from "Re: support-seamonkey Digest..." to 
"Re: "
2. Delete the other topics from your reply, so only the part you're 
replying to remains.

Paul and Daniel

Thanks for your reply and the information on using this list.  I will continue to muddle 
through all this until I "get the hang of it".
In the meantime, I received some instruction from someone about the issue I am 
having with Seamonkey.  I tried all the suggestions but they didn't work.
After installing the version 2.29 update, some of the sites I try to access 
will not load a full page.  One of my financial accounts is inaccessible 
because the only thing that shows on the page that loads, is the data bar for 
my user name, but nothing else.  There is no button or other links of any kind 
to execute the user name action, so I can't continue with entering my password. 
 I can access the site using Firefox and other browsers but Seamonkey has been 
rendered somewhat inoperable.  How do I fix this?  I have tried uninstalling 
Seamonkey and then installing an earlier version, but the same thing still 
happens.
Any suggestions?

It seems to me that there are some people, (like myself a computer
novice), using this list, who don't understand how to keep the
postings from becoming mingled so that we can't determine who is
replying to whom, or how to keep the topics separate from each
other. In other words, very few seem to know what's going on. There
needs to be some organization somehow. Are you a moderator?  If not,
will they help?


The short answer is to look at the options on the View menu.

"Sort by: Threaded" will group messages in the same thread
(conversation) together. You can also choose Ascending/Descending
according to whether you want the oldest messages at the top or bottom.

"Threads: With Unread" will filter out threads that contain only
messages already marked as read. Since there are over 87,000 messages in
this newsgroup, you don't want to sift through all that every time you
visit. With this setting, I generally find fewer than 20 new messages
when I check in the morning; the rest are hidden.

The attribution line ("So-and-so wrote:") at the top tells you who is
writing, and there should be nested attribution lines under that if he's
quoting previous posters.

It's not so complicated, and it's not true that "very few seem to know
what's going on." Only newbies and rare posters find it confusing. Stick
around and you'll get the hang of it.


Paul, did you note that the OP was posting using MSOE??


No, it never occurred to me that was even possible. Why would an OE user
be posting here?


Beats me!! Maybe he's seen the error of his ways!! :-)

I think it is better to upgrade your Windows XP before downgrade your
SeaMonkey!



So are you saying that if I want to continue using SM that I must 
upgrade to Windows 7 or 8?


That would be pretty stupid. It would only make several Billon$ for 
Microsoft.

I found only 2 bugs, and I found workarounds for both of them.  The
address book is properly sorted in the sidebar, so I can use it to get
email addresses, and open a compose window from there.  The bookmark
backups will not restore, but if one exports them as HTML, one can
import them.

To stop automatic updates, what I did was go into about:config and
change these settings:
app.update.auto -> false
app.update.enabled -> false
app.update.silent -> false


The only bug I see is the address book isn't alphabetical.
Has anyone figured out how to correct it?

Hello,

When i do an error in the body part of a mail (or a news-post) i see 
the

bad word  red underlined with "~" characters.
Then i select this word and click on the "Spell" button -  i receive a
list of correct words where i can decide which one i want to replace my
bad word.

If i do an error in the "Subject" part of a mail (or a news-post) i see
also the bad word  red underlined with "~" characters.
BUT the "Spell" Button is greyed -  so unusable.

Two solutions to cure the problem:
1. Permit the "Spell" button to work.
2. Stop underlining bad words in the Subject.


What happens if you right click over the misspelled word?
I just tried it and in subject line it still gives me a list of choices
to change it to so that should work just fine for you.
I did try your method and do see the bug, but the work around in right
click over it, which IMHO is a better way to use spell check anyway.


It does seem inconsistent...

The "as you type" spell-check (red underlines) does check the subject 
line, and shows suggestions if you right-click on a misspelled word 
there.


The spell-check dialog ("Spell" button or Edit > Check Spelling...) 
only checks the body; it does not detect a misspelled word in the 
subject.


Related to this, having "Check spelling before sending" selected 
activates the spell-check dialog, so does not detect an error in the 
subject.


I'd expect all to check the same areas - ideally to include the 
subject line. Looks like it's already reported:

  https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=368915

(Also of mild amusement - there is a menu item Edit > Spellcheck As 
You Type, but "Spellcheck" as one word like that is flagged as an 
error by the spell checker...)

Nobody; OK to take it and work on it 



This is from 2007 - so i don't expect a cure of this bug ... another one 
(i have a great list :-) )
NO, i will not cure it by myself - i dont have the material, the 
programs nor the expertise.

In my 2.26.1 and all previous versions, the address book has been 
sortable -- click on a column title (e.g., "Name") to sort by that 
parameter, click it again to reverse the order. Does that not work for you?
