You can't edit from within SeaMonkey. Copy the path, close SeaMonkey and
go to Windows Explorer, paste in the path and edit the file from there.

Good Morning folks,

I've recently migrated to a solid state drive and reinstalled Seamonkey 
2.40 yesterday with my live.com e'mail address as my first email IMAP 
account. I have always set this up as a pop3 account previously, this 
morning I received the following error:



The current operation on 'Inbox' did not succeed. The mail server for
account @live.com responded: Namespace Command is not permitted in
current state (NotAuthenticatedServerError).

They can be anywhere you want them.


I did click on the Profile Manager menu box to "discover" that any
new profiles are in the same location away from the main SM
location:


You needed to "discover" them because you allowed the defaults to
determine where they would be placed and what they would be named,
rather than you naming and placing them..


example  C:/\Users\Smith (you named
folder)\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\SeaMonkey\profiles\


That is what I call buried in the basement.  How about
X:\DATA\PROFILES\profile-1, profile-2, profileSAM, profileSUE, etc.

Your big project of coping from one computer to another is my backup
system.  It is also how I switch from home desktop to road laptop and
back.  I just copy the "PROFILES" tree with a couple clicks.  I have
been doing it since Netscape.

Don't assume you are stuck with defaults and you won't need to work so 
hard.  And you will know where everything is, and you won't "loose" stuff.

  Wow!  Thanks for this!  I forgot to look at Mozdev bugzilla...

I wish there were fixes available for other addons (mainly for the launchy).

That works if you also choose View | Messages | All. If you choose View
| Messages | Unread instead, you don't get the whole thread.


And, as I've accidentally marked the Group as All Read, there are no
UnRead messages, except for the last few days posts!!


Well, that's fixable, if you want...

Suppose you want to go farther back and mark all messages since oh, 
September 20 as unread. I assume some but not all messages since then 
are marked as unread.


Begin by choosing
View | Threads | All
and
View | Messages | All
You'll get something like 99,000 messages in the list. Also choose
View | Sort by | ... Unthreaded
(don't bother with the other two sort settings).

Next, click the column heading "Date" to sort by date.

Scroll to the bottom (if newest are last) or top (if newest are first) 
and select the last/first message as appropriate.


Scroll to the desired cutoff point (the first Sept. 20 message), and 
while holding the Shift key, click on that message to select all 
messages since then.


Press the "M" on your keyboard to toggle Read/Unread, and if the result 
is Read (not boldface), press it again to make them Unread (boldface).


Now restore your original View settings and you're good to go. You may 
have to navigate away from the group and back to get SM to refresh the 
display, but that's only two clicks.

You can easily find the path to the file this way:
Edit|Mail & Newsgroups Account
Settings|news.eternal-september.org|Server Settings - and there you will
find under 'Message Storage' the path to the newsrc file. Example:

Linux
/home//.mozilla/seamonkey/.default/News/newsrc-news.eternal-september.org

Windows
C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\SeaMonkey\Profiles\.default\News\newsrc-news.eternal-september.org

Click the 'Browse' button and you'll be taken to the file folder. Look
for the newsrc file for the appropriate newsgroup
(newsrc-news.eternal-september.org).


Thanks for this, NoOp. That is basically what I was doing, where I was 
going, but I don't get a chance to Edit it, either using Right Click or 
Organise.



You can edit if you wish, but it's not easy as you get something like this:

alt.comp.linux: 1-1480,1489,1493-1497,1529-1532,1534,1570-1572
alt.os.linux: 
1-7071,7132,7333,7784-7786,7791,7796,7804,7806,7812,7814,7817,7819,7822,7825,7841,7846,7847,7872,7873,7964-7966,8048
alt.os.linux.debian: 
1-3934,3979,3981,3983-3987,3993,4000,4008,4013-4021,4024,4026-4028,4030,4035,4050,4069,4070,4072,4074,4076,4077,4079,4086,4103,4695-4697,4699-4703,4706,4711,4712,4716,4728,4729,4737-4743,4746-4777,4812,4814,4815
alt.os.linux.mint: 1-3646,3925-4501,5948,5949,5953,5977,5983,5998,6001

So unless you know what all of that means & how to edit it, I recommend
just unsubscribing and resubscribing as suggested by others in this
thread. Alternate is to close SeaMonkey and delete the .msf files for
the group (look in the actual newsgroup folder) & restart SeaMonkey -
that is pretty much to the same as unsubscribing and resubscribing, but
keeps the group in the same location instead of placing it at the bottom
of the list of subscribed groups (helpful if you've already arranged
your groups by subject etc).


Yeap. As I understand it, the numbers represent the Read message numbers 
in each group. I figured if I edit ed the appropriate group to be, e.g. 
"alt.os.linux:  "with no numbers after it, that would indicate that 
there were no Read messages so everyone would appear as Unread!!


As I don't seem to be able to Edit the file, I might end up 
UnSubscribing/Re-Subscribing as you suggest (after I read the other 
responses  thanks fellas!).
