 Rejecting cookies breaks some Web sites.  Instead, I makr the file
 cookies.sqlite in my profile as read-only.  The Web server thinks it is
 setting cookies, but those cookies are lost as soon as I terminate
 SeaMonkey.

I use the the Permissions Menu menu list in PrefBar.  This is NOT
inherent in the installed PrefBar.  Instead, you must download it from
 and import
it into PrefBar.  It provides the old way of managing cookies, popups,
images, and permissions for Web sites to install extensions and updates.

I know of no way to do that.  Why not set SeaMonkey to load only threads 
with unread messages?  That gets rid of a lot of stuff you have already seen.


But I don't want to read those unread messages too. I just want to mark read 
ALL newsgroups at once since I am not going to bother reading them since I 
fell behind and just started caught up on the next time.


If I find some time I will add it. Goes on my nerves too.

Just need to find some time... :)

You can use that to make exceptions to cookie permissions.  I am 
actually using a cookie manager extension (written for Firefox but run 
through the converter) that can make cookie permission exceptions for 
the site I am currently viewing.  I patched it so that it would also 
access cookieViewer.xul.



I've found that bookmarking the cookieViewer is useful.  Although I 
normally flush my cookies at the end of a session, it's the fastest way 
of getting to cookie data quickly, and to me, the UI works better than 
going through the Data Manager.

Seems to be working fine including search at first glance:

Basically there was only a single problem with 2.53.2 beta 1 reported so 
far wrt language packs and the upgrade. The final will get some 
additonal security and a few minor issue fixes so I would say even the 
beta is good to go. Installing the final over the beta will be smooth.

Thanx for the info.
Turns out the TI problem, so far, was a conflict with AdBlock that 
didn't exist before. Another reason to switch to uBlock I guess.
The search was broken but also so was some of the page navigation when 
you click order now etc. It worked a week ago.  I spend a few hours a 
day on that site usually so it was a big blow. There is a lot that is 
way harder to do on the new page they launched or doesn't work anymore 
no matter what browser I use so I am hoping TI is on it for the other 
issues.

Not using SeaMonkey as far as I can find.

You can do that with Thunderbird by either selecting each newsgroup 
you want to mark as read, right-click and select "Mark Newsgroups 
Read", or select the account level in the Folder pane, right-click and 
"Mark All Folders Read" from the context menu.


There is a faster way to do that with folders.  Just use Cmd-Shift-C or 
Ctrl-Shift-C on the folder.




Ctrl+Shift+C switches to the Calendar tab in Thunderbird no matter what 
folder I select.


Works in my SeaMonkey for one folder but not if multiple folders are 
selected.


Thanks for the tip. :)

For FireBug and true-full-screen-  if you don't know why you need them,

If you read the 2.53.1 release notes

there is still a version of uBlock Origin that is working (and 
supported), and there is a link offered.


For AdBlock, the issue is that they've stopped supporting XUL 
extensions, and at version 2.53.x Seamonkey does not support 
WebExtension extensions.


I will note that I'm quite content with what I'm getting out of uBlock.

change default download?

[Hawker]

I must have clicked to always use this option accidentally.
When I download a picture in Face book it used to ask me what to open it 
with. I would usually click download, but sometimes open in SeaMonkey. 
Now it always opens in SeaMonkey. How to I reset this to ask me again?
I checked in Preferences Helper Applications and it still says ask for 
JPG so I must be looking in the wrong place.

Hi,

Daniel a tapoté le 16/04/2020 16:35:

Is it possible to create a News filter to mark a message/thread as read
if a message/thread is cross-posted to a particular newsgroup??


Yes a filter that contain two conditions :
   Newsgroups contain , and  Newsgroups contain newsgroups.name


Thank you, Yamo, I'll give it a go.

O.K., Yamo, I finally came across a post that was cross-posted into the 
newsgroup that I wasn't interested in.


So I tried to set up a "Customised" filter that would filter on the 
cross-posted newsgroups. First off, I was unable to call a Filter (i.e. 
News message header) "Newsgroups contain" nor would it let me call it 
"Newsgroupscontain".


Each time I entered the 'New message header' and click 'Add' that line 
got moved into the second part of the 'Customize Headers' screen and 
then clicked 'OK', the screen just stayed there.


So, obviously, what I am trying to do doesn't work  so any other 
suggestions??

Yes, that would work for each Newsgroup in the account, but my reading 
of Ant's post is that he wants to right click on the "news.mozilla.org" 
server in the Accounts Pane and "Mark all Posts in all Groups as Read", 
rather than clicking on each group on a Server Account and then "Mark 
group as read".
