Somewhere along the line I had the 'grippies' in the seamonkey mail

between the list of messages and mail accounts and the other below
the list of messages.
How do I change the size of these grippies to make them wider?
What View -> Layout are you using? With all of the three options the
first grippy you list is a vertical one. Making it wider would mean
making the whole vertical splitter wider. The later grippy is a
horizontal one except in the "Vertical" layout. Making it wider may
mean different things. Which one you're after?
Both. I want to make both a bit larger (wider, easier to select
with the mouse).
I'm still unsure if by wider you mean just thicker (depending on
horizontal/vertical orientation), but try placing the following
rules in
your "userChrome.css" [1], and see if it is all you need:
#folderpane-splitter > grippy,
#threadpane-splitter > grippy {
min-width: 10px;
background-position: center;
}
#folderpane-splitter[orient="vertical"] > grippy,
#threadpane-splitter[orient="vertical"] > grippy {
min-width: 115px;
min-height: 10px;
}
Adjust the '10px' to your liking.
[1] http://kb.mozillazine.org/UserChrome.css
and, of course, reboot SeaMonkey so the UserChrome.css changes are
incorporated into prefs.js! :-)
That is not incorporated into prefs.js, but into the interface
(controlled presumably by xulstore.json).
Is that right?? All this time, I though UserChrome.css stuff went into
prefs.js or am I thinking user.js stuff gets copied into prefs.js??
user.js goes into prefs.js

If there is more than one account, it becomes necessary for the same password to be used for all the accounts. That is because Password Manager does not have access to the user ID on the prior Web page and thus cannot tell which password is appropriate. Unfortunately, for me it hasn't gone away. I only have one account at the Web site, but it still doesn't come up with the password for the second popup. This is a new site for me, but I have other sites (financial) where Password Manager works just fine. However, for those the login and password are in the same popup.

I can't figure out why SM is blocking them and TB is not. Any help greatly appreciated. I'm sure you know this already, but SM and Microsoft Outlook block remote images by default. In SM you should see a bar at the top of the email explaining that remote content has been blocked - you can then use the options on that header bar to allow the images, and as others mentioned, you can also turn it off in the prefs. The other setting that might affect this is "view : message body as", where you can choose plain text, simple HTML, full HTML. It could also be that the remote content has been removed since the mail was sent? You could check this by getting the image URL and pasting it in to the browser URL bar and see if it works. If you don't have the "blocked" header bar above the email, and the images are still missing, it could be something else. In general, I recommend the SM defaults where you have to manually approve the remote images for each HTML email - much safer, or you could set it to only allow plain text (like me).

I read that Window 10 will cost me $120 for the 'Home Version'. I wonder what WON'T run in widows 10 ? I have a 3.33 GHz Celeron and 2 GB of Memory and a Humorously large Hard Drive. DoctorBill It works just fine on W10. In fact, on my systems ALL programs continue to run just fine. -- Ed Mullen http://edmullen.net/ When companies ship Styrofoam, what do they pack it in? ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Re: Email backup

SM ver. 2.33.1 This used to be simple, but since ver.2.33 is next to impossible to figure out which folders and files to back up, and even where they are stored. TIA for any clues. Specific folder locations vary across operating systems, and your message header doesn't reveal your OS. But if you know where your profile is, look under that for a folder called (ta-da) "Mail." For example, on my Win7 system it's at C:\Users\MyNameHere\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\SeaMonkey\Profiles\.default\Mail\ where "MyNameHere" is my Windows user name and represents a random alphanumeric string that's different on every installation. Or ImapMail, or both. And users really should just back-up the whole profile. -- Ed Mullen http://edmullen.net/ When your pet bird sees you reading the newspaper, does he wonder why you're just sitting there, staring at carpeting? ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

That's wy above and beyond me, but thanks. B/ Any chance you've tried to run SeaMonkey in compatibility mode? What is compatibility mode? Seamonkey Help displays no items found. Navigate to the SeaMonkey installation folder. Right-click the seamonkey.exe file. Click "properties" in the pop-up menu. Click the compatibility tab. Put a check in the box for "Run this program in compatibility mode for:". Select Windows 7. Try the program again and see if it solved anything. FWIW, I'm running SM on two Windows 10 systems with no issues at all. -- Ed Mullen http://edmullen.net/ Deja Loo: I've heard this flush before! ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

I did the upgrade to Windows 10 from Windows 7 and SeaMonkey is doing fine in this environment Except that during the upgrade process I did unchecked the little box offering all these innovations about Edge their new way to work with the web. So far everything is OK Looking forward to see other experiences related to this!!! Best Regards @lex SM working fine here on one W7 laptop upgraded to W10 and one brand new tower with a new install of W10. I highly recommend Classic Shell.
