Lost ability to select which outgoing mail server?

2020-10-19 Thread BigBlue
We used to be able to go into Mail & Newsgroup Account Settings in Seamonkey 
and go to the 'Advanced' button for a particular account to set which of the 
outgoing SMTP servers that account uses. That seems to be gone. Since you can 
still add multiple outgoing mail servers I assume it is still possible to 
configure this, but where did it go?

Never mind... It looks like they moved it up to the actual account entry level 
instead of the 'Servers' section.

Might not be the best solution, but view the 'Sent' folder, sort by date or 
subject (so all the e-mails are listed in pairs) and then click on every other 
line and delete. It's not elegant but it makes it easy to click through lots of 
lines fast.

Simplest thing is to just delete the existing account in Seamonkey and set it 
up fresh as a POP account. There isn't much to re-do. The server will be 
different anyway.

It's a service provider so I don't think I have access to any logs on the 
server side. I was hoping for logs on my desktop for Seamonkey, since that 
should be more descriptive of the issue. And, since the 'publishing failed' 
message happens almost instantaneously after clicking 'publish' I'm not sure a 
connection was even attempted, so there may not be anything on the server.

It's so weird since this is such a simple situation. There are only 4 basic 
elements involved: server hostname, username, password, and, optionally, the 
directory on the destination. And this exact setup worked flawlessly for years 
before I had to re-install and move my profile backup back into place.

Log for Seamonkey Composer publishing?

2019-11-15 Thread BigBlue
After some Seamonkey crashing issues a few weeks back I had to reinstall 
Seamonkey and restore my profile from a backup of the profile directory. 
Everything has been working great since then except publishing web pages to a 
web server I manage. I've always been able to use Composer to edit pages and 
then publish via the built-in site publish feature. There is nothing unique 
about the destination. Just a simple FTP server.

In the past, the following info worked fine:

Publishing addres: ftp://ftp..com/public_html
Plain FTP connection
enter username/password in prompt

Now when I try to publish I immediately get a 'Publishing Failed' message in 
the dialog. Is there a log file somewhere that may contain more information? Or 
a way to increase log level to a debugging level?

Thanks!

It wasn't $40 when I bought it. I've been using it for maybe 10 years. Not sure 
which version I had, but I do still have a 3.4.0 download so that's probably 
the one. I can try 3.4.1 and see if that helps. Interestingly, Ultramon didn't 
break things though. My Seamonkey Mail worked fine for years with it. Something 
changed in Seamonkey and others like Mozilla and Chrome (or maybe Windows 
itself) that broke things. Definitely up to Ultramon to resolve though.

The good thing about Ultramon was the additional buttons it adds to windows to 
allow you to instantly move them over to the other monitor without having to 
drag across, plus the ability to maximize a window across both monitors. And 
other semi-minor tweaks.

Seems that I already had general.useragent.compatMode.firefox=true, so 
apparently the workaround they describe doesn't help the Google Calendar

I guess I'll make note of things and watch for the patch to make it to

I go to 'File... New... Calendar', choose 'On the Network', Choose CalDAV as

Was there something else that had to be set up in Google to make that

Lightning calendar tool linked to Google calendar?

2019-10-31 Thread BigBlue
I see that in the new version of Seamonkey Mail there is an Add-on called 
Lightning that provides calendar functionality. That might be useful if I could 
link it to my Google calendar. I searched and found a "Provider for Google 
Calendar" Add-on that seems to do just that but I think it may only work with 
Thunderbird directly, not Seamonkey Mail. Is that the case? I can't find it via 
the Seamonkey Add-on search. 

Is there any other way to connect Lightning in Seamonkey with Google calendar?

So I was going through that list before I originally posted. It seems like with 
a fresh install almost everything is rules out between safe mode and a normal 
run with default settings (theme, addons, toolbar layout) and I did explicitly 
try disabling hardware acceleration, which made no difference. I don't know

stock/default new profile they would be irrelevant. I couldn't find any way to 
make a change to Java outside of safe mode, but with a fresh install and zero 
accounts/content would that matter?

The PC is otherwise well cared for and healthy. It is 64-bit Windows 10 Home on 
32GB memory system that is 1 year old. Always had AV. Fully up-to-date on 
Windows updates. Disk is SSD and has shown no indications of issues. I suppose 
I can force a ckddsk just in case.

Seamonkey Mail crashes at opening

2019-10-30 Thread BigBlue
[Seamonkey 2.49.5 on Windows 10 (up to date)]

I've used Seamonkey for many years, mainly for the Mail client. Love it. For 
the past couple of months I've had problems when starting Mail (using v2.49.2) 
where it would crash almost immediately after opening. It would, however, 
instantiate the Mail window for a second or so, and sometimes if I clicked into 
a folder in one of my mail accounts in that initial second it would just work 
normally. Usually took me 4-6 startup attempts to get it to stay running. Once 
running it was mostly solid for until I rebooted or exited Mail. Nothing else 
was affected. I could run Browser, Address Book, Composer just fine all the 
time.

Yesterday I realized that Seamonkey was no longer auto-updating so I updated 
manually to 2.49.5 (latest). With this version the crashes still happen but are 
now immediate after launching it (either directly via the -mail flag or by 
clicking the envelope icon in Browser). It doesn't launch the window at all now 
so my trick above is useless.

I tried all the usual troubleshooting steps:

 - Start with a new profile. With a new profile it will run Mail one time, but 
on the next launch it goes back to crashing. This is regardless of whether I 
set up a mail account or not. 
 - Clean install, by doing full uninstall and removing the 
C:\Users\myuser\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Seamonkey\Profiles\ folder 
entirely. Same as above.
 - Run Windows in safe mode. Same result.
 - Revert back to 2.49.2. Same result.
 - Disable hardware acceleration. Same.
 - Disable my antivirus software. Same.
 
Bear in mind that at this point I have zero mail accounts set up and am totally 
default on all Seamonkey settings, with nothing added or changed. The only way 
I can get it to work now is by starting Seamonkey in safe mode. When I do that 
it works fine. But obviously this is not ideal, especially since it won't save 
any UI changes between sessions (reordering columns, expanding e-mail account 
trees, etc.). I have configured my mail accounts while in Seamonkey safe mode 
and things work great between starts as long as I use safe mode every time. It 
is just the lack of control on the above that I don't like. I suppose I could 
just always run it in safe mode and get used to the lack of ability to change 
things, but I'm bothered by the whole situation.

Since I did a full uninstall/reinstall and did not add any themes or add-ons I 
know those are not the issue. So what else is it about safe mode that could 
allow mail to start when all of the other things are ruled out?

Thanks!
