how to set max width size for new windows?

[Gabriel]

Hi all, is it possible to set the maximum width when opening a new window in
the browser? SM 2.53.6 on macOS.
Because currently a new window opens at the max screen size, and as I'm using
an iMac 5K I'd like to set it to a smaller width. 

TIA :-)

Re: SeaMonkey 2.53.6 released! - Help ! All my passwords are lost !

[Frank-Rainer Grahl]

There was nothing special in these versions. Did you have a master password 
set? Check your profile if you find cert9.db and key4.db. cert8.db and key3.db 
are the old versions and should not be there. There might also be a pkcs11.txt 
and secmod.db which are old.


Close SeaMonkey and move them all out of the profile folder.

Copy cert9.db and key4.db from your Firefox profile and you should be good.
If 2.49 profile copy cert8.db and key3.db but they need to have no master 
password. Might work or not otherwise. If it works delete the old cert8.db and 
key3.db if they are still there after creation of cert9.db and key4.db.

Sorry I forgot. logins.json actually hold the passwords and need to be copied

You are writing from 2.49.5. Any chance you have an old version you did
not uninstall?

Some sites mistakenly interpret various forms of tracking protection as 
ad blocking.  Have a look at your privacy and cookie settings to see if 
you have any privacy measures set up that might be triggering these 
warnings.


Having said that, you may not be able to find a collection of settings 
that provides you with what you feel to be an acceptable level of 
privacy protection and yet is compatible with some of these sites.  You 
may have to set up a couple of browser profiles - one for general 
browsing, with privacy settings enabled, and another one with no privacy 
settings enabled so that you can browse these sites that have aggressive 
anti-adblocking measures in place.

A known issue.

For 2.53.4, if you go to the release notes, 
https://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/seamonkey2.53.4/ , the 
section titled "Extensions (Add-ons) and Themes" explicitly notes:


"Adblock Plus 2.9.1 may cause huge memory and CPU consumption and is not 
recommended or officially supported in this SeaMonkey version. Consider 
switching to uBlock. "


The following note includes a link of where to find the most current 
version of uBlock.


This note is repeated in release notes for all versions of 2.53.  For 
practical purposes, consider Adblock Plus to be dead.


The underlying issue is with where Mozilla has gone with Extensions, 
replacing the XUL API with WebExtensions, as used by Chrome. 
WebExtensions was introduced in Firefox 55.0, and XUL was completely 
dropped in 57.0.  I believe that the core of Seamonkey 2.55 is still 
based on 2.56 (and with many security fixes backported from later 
releases), but I know from reading the notes of the developers' meetings 
that there hasn't yet been any serious work of implementing 
WebExtensions in alphas of Seamonkey 2.57.  I do have a beta of 2.57 
installed, and in that copy, the Mail and News client is not 
functioning, nor is there any capacity of running any extensions. 
That's not intended as a permanent thing, just a limitation that is the 
result of having only a few volunteer developers.


With extensions, development/support of the old XUL versions has pretty 
much ended, although there are a handful that still have developer 
support, and the release notes have links to some of the more popular 
ones.  Adblock Plus is in the former group, uBlock Origin is in the latter.

yeah the problem is still there, stemming from incoming unicode emails being

Tracking protection is configurable per site. If it's so configured 
(Preferences>Privacy & Security>User Tracking: Prevent tracking 
activities..., Warn me when known tracking ... ), you get a pop-up 
ribbon at the top of a page that wants to exceed your privacy settings. 
If you select Unblock, that applies to the specific site. You can later 
change the per-site settings using Tools>Data Manager.

OP's issue doesn't have appear to have anything to do ABP: in fact there 
are no extensions ("pgms") installed.  Rather, it's likely to be the 
Tracking protection as identified by Steve.

Be aware that the start of this thread is nearly 2 years old - some 
details might have changed a bit in that time.


The setting you describe only applies for emails which don't indicate 
the encoding in the message headers.  Most will include that information 
these days.  See my previous reply on 22nd December 2020 for a possible 
workaround and reference to a bug report which may be related to what 
you're seeing (if the workaround doesn't work, you may have a different 
issue, e.g. if the sender's software might have included the wrong 
encoding in the message headers).

My experiences with Firefox in this area have mostly been good, my tests

Help! In V.2.53.6 ebay pictures in emails are nc longer displayed

[Dr.J.Elz-Fianda via support-seamonkey]

Hello experts,
yesterday I upgraded from V2.53.5.1 to 2.53.6.
After that i get no display of article pictures from ebay.
From other senders I receive still the pictures to display in-line as I have 
chosen.
In the HTML source code for such an image i can find, e.g.:
https://i.ebayimg.com/im=
ages/g/BgMAAOSw4QhgDUDt/s-l300/p.jpg" alt=3D"Praktica MTL5 Camera SLR Penta=
con 35m=E2=80=A6" />
Is this an error otherwise known ?
Is there a hidden option in SeaMonkey to switch this display on or off?

thanks for help

Jochen.
