Thanks. I used to use the one from PrefBar, but it didn't work anymore. :(

Can't see news messages when offline except with view source

[Gabriel]

Hi,

my ISP closed its news server, but I had the synchronization ON and previously 
downloaded all the messages.
The weird thing is I can't see them in the normal main window, I only can see 
their content with cmd-U (view message source).

Why does that happen and how to fix it?

My SM is:
User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.14; rv:52.0) 
Gecko/20100101 Firefox/52.0 SeaMonkey/2.49.4

Build identifier: 20180711181801


Thanx!

A further follow-up on this topic.  My problem appears timing related.
When I attempted to look at enigmail messages this morning I again got
the pop-up requesting me to enter my pass phrase.  This lead me to a
suspicion I confirmed just a little while ago.

I have found that I have no problems sending a signed or encrypted
email, only dealing with incoming ones.  So I sent an enigmail message
to their testing robot address.  After sending the message, which did
NOT prompt me for the pass phrase, I found that I can now access
received enigmail messages.  I also was getting prompted for the pass
phrase when looking at sent enigmail messages which I now can view after
sending the test messages.

So there appears to be something involving timing, which I assume points
to a problem with the plug-in.  I guess I will need to address this on
their forum/newsgroup/whatever.

President Trump still insists that Mexico will eventually pay for
his border wall.  If he really believes that, why does he not pay
for it out of his personal billions of dollars and then personally
collect from Mexico?

I was talking about browsing history, not form and search history. I
have that feature option disabled.
