Using POP3 or IMAP?  Yahoo said some time ago that they would be 
discontinuing POP3 at some point in the future.


I am having no such problems with my IMAP Yahoo email as of two 
hours ago when I received my last email there.

Thank for your response.

I had been set up using POP3.  Where do I find instructions for 
changing the account to IMAP?


Unfortunately you cannot change an account from POP3 to IMAP, you 
will need to set up a new account.


Dave

Thanks for your note.

I'm now thoroughly confused.

1) Can I use the same name as on the existing POP account?
2) If so, will all of the present e-mail subscriptions automatically 
transfer?

3) Do you have any suggestions on how to proceed (or what NOT to do)?


This is for Thunderbird but it's close enough to SeaMonkey to get you 
started.

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/switch-pop-imap-account

The "Transfer your local messages to the server" section can take some 
time if you have a LOT of messages to move.


Lem Johnson


Thank you.  That is the kind of information I needed.

'Import' Function in SM v.2.53.2

[Henrik37 via support-seamonkey]

Is there a good tutorial on how SM v.2.53.2 'import' function works?

I.e., what form must files be in to be imported?  Must the import be 
from a complete installation of the source browser? Where must the items 
to be imported be located - same PC, DVD, flash drive, or where?  What 
does the 'Import All' include?


Many thanks, in advance, for any and assistance.

Reading the Microsoft files Don referenced, I have come to believe the

Because some financial institution websites refuse to recognize or work

Zip up the entire AppData\Roaming\mozilla folder on your Windows 7 pc 
when SeaMonkey is closed. Unpack it on you new Windows 10 PC and just 
install the 2.53.2 Windows x64 version. Should pick up your old profile 
and upgrade it. Make sure you remove a master password if one exists 
before you zip it up.


Windows 10 makes it harder to set an external Browser as default but it 
is still possible in the new Stettings dialogs.


FRG


FRG - First, this all sounds too easy.  Second, I recognize that you 
know vastly more about SeaMonkey 2.52.2 mail than my 82 year old brain 
will ever comprehend.  I do, however, have some questions:


1) Must I Zip and UnZip the Mozilla folder to move it?  As my Win7-Home 
files are backed up to an external hard drive, why couldn't I just use 
the Windows 'Copy' command and move them from the external hard drive 
that way?


2) Do I understand you correctly that you are telling me to move the 
Win7 files to their Win10 destination and then install X64 SM 2.52.2?


3) It has always been my custom to install SM to a 'd\' partition on the 
same physical hard drive as the Windows OS because an OS failure is 
easier to deal with if there are no (often large) e-mail files to worry 
about preserving in the same partition as the OS.  A friend recently 
told me that SM 2.52.2 no longer permits such a SM installation; i.e. in 
a different hard drive partition than the 'c:\' used by the Windows OS. 
Is that information correct and, if so, is there any way to install X64 
SM 2.52 in a partition of one's choice?


Thank you for your most helpful explanation and guidance.

Moving SM Mail Files

[Henrik37 via support-seamonkey]

On a 64 bit Dell Optiplex running 64 bit Win 7 Pro, I presently have SM 
2.49.4 installed.  I am not certain whether existing SM mail is 32 bit 
or 64 bit as it has been in use for several years.


I want to change the company providing the mail service and change the 
name of the mailbox.  In the process, however, I want to keep all of the 
existing inbox and sent mail files.


Can I simply copy the old inbox and sent mail files and paste these two 
files into a new mail account I establish with the new mail provider?


Please put any comments in simple language as I am 82 and although I go 
back to the MS-DOS days, I have forgotten more PC-related things than I 
like to admit. Thanks, in advance, for any and all advice, comments, or 
guidance.

Are you using POP3 and getting messages like this:



The POP3 mail server (pop.verizon.net) does not support UIDL or XTND
XLST, which are required to implement the ``Leave on Server'', ``Maximum
Message Size'' or ``Fetch Headers Only'' options. To download your mail,
turn off these options in the Server Settings for your mail server in
the Account Settings window.



I have been seeing this on occasion since 2.49.4 and have never been
able to figure out a way to avoid it.  When it happens I restart
SeaMonkey and that clears it out for a while.

Dave

The Yahoo e-mail problem also applies to SM 2.49.4 and I think, but 
did't keep a record of, whether I received the error message you refer 
to.  I think I have seen these error messages, however.

yes and the Yahoo e-mail non-working problem applies to SM 2.49.4 as well.

Probably nothing related to the site or the platform that you're running 
on.


I just went there, and had no problems, after I enabled scripting.

By this description, there's probably something in your profile that's 
getting in the way.  For this, the first thing to do is try Safe Mode 
(Help -> Restart with Add-ons disabled...) Besides temporarily disabling 
any extensions, this will also put many (but not all) your preferences 
settings back to defaults.


In my own experience, I find that even a one-time restart in safe mode 
can be enough to clear this kind of problem. My suspicion is that the 
problem is in one of the supporting SQLite databases, and that a Safe 
Mode restart can be enough to clear problems there.


If you find that problems go away in Safe Mode, and then return on a 
normal restart:


1) Check any extensions that you have running, and disable them. If 
there's a particular extension that you really want, then it could be 
that there's corruption in the extension, and it's worth deleting the 
extension and reinstalling.


2) If you don't have extensions causing problems, one of the options in 
Safe Mode is a Reset which permanently commits changes that happen in 
Safe Mode.


If you just want to check whether there's a problem with Seamonkey 
(although it's doubtful), you could also try using the Profile Manager 
to create a second profile. If you get what you want on the alternate 
profile, then that's hard confirmation that the problem is in your 
primary profile.


Smith

Back in March, I posed the issue above.  I restarted Win 7 in 'Safe' 
mode as suggested and tried the other fixes suggested.  Nothing solved 
the problem so I just gave up on 'ABC World News' (their loss since it 
means I don't see their commercials!).


Tonight I decided to explore the matter again and I get an ABC-generated 
error message indicating that SM does not support something called 
'HLS'.  I also tried to get at the ABC News program via IE 11 and 
received the same error message - IE 11 does not support 'HLS'


Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do?  Should I install 
Goggle's browser?  Many thanks, in advance, for any guidance, 
suggestions, etc.

Sir - I am not certain what you are telling me.  Are you telling me that 
the 'cert8.db' I have noted is, in fact, the certificate file for SM 
v.2.49.4?


If so, do I delete this file and paste in a different certificate file? 
If so, whose certificate file should I be using?


Or, am I confused?

maybe because of this?
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4072699/january-3-2018-windows-security-updates-and-antivirus-software

does windows update work for you now?


The fix I found was to deinstall Kaspersky Internet Security (KIS) 2017
and go back to KIS 2016.  With KIS 2016, all of the security certificate
errors ceased.

My suspicion - untested at this point - is that KIS 2017 contained a
preliminary fix required by the Intel/Microsoft Spectre/Meltdown patch
and thus caused some sort of conflict with an unpatched (i.e. after
December 1) Win 7 system.


Maybe your KIS 2017 install didn't work quite right and/or KIS 2016
isn't playing man-in-the middle with all of your web traffic?  Can you
try this
go to https://www.google.com
click on the lock icon on the bottom right of the SeaMonkey window
you should get a 'Page Info' popup with the Security tab highlighted
click on View Certificate
click on Details
is the Certificate Hierarchy

I'm wondering if KIS 2016 is intercepting all of your web traffic or not..

Microsoft had incorrectly changed the date on something to do with 
Windows Update on Win 7 and a solution was to change the date on my PC 
to something prior to December 3, 2017.  I did that and Windows Update 
listed all of the updates that I hadn't received.  I haven't installed 
the December 2017 and January 2018 Win 7 updates as yet because of 
comments made by Leonhard on his blog and as Dell seems to be advising 
to not install and Spectre/Meltdown on Win 7 machines (mine is a Dell 
Optiplex 780) as yet.

I found the two files you mentioned plus 'sessionstore-1.json' through

Only the file listed as 'sessionstore.json' had a value - about 800, and
all of the numbered 'sessionstore-x.json' files (x = 1 through )

You can toss them.  You'll find SM has created a new sessionstore.json
file based on your current browser tabs.

If there is a user interface for changing a preference, I always
recommend that in place of manually changing preference variables.  This
is because the user interface might involve more preference variables

Rebuilding SM Mail after a PC Failure

[Henrik37]

I am in the process of rebuilding my SM mail system on a new PC after an 
unexpected major failure of an old PC.  The failed PC ran SM 2.39.  The 
new PC has SM 2.40 installed but is not yet in use.


Using the command prompt, I have managed to copy the 'inbox' and 'sent' 
files for all six of my e-mail accounts to a memory stick.  I know where 
to paste these recovered files into my new SM 2.40 installation's mail 
files.


I would like to recover my 'collected addresses' (which I think is the 
address book) but I don't know what that file(s) named.  Looking at the 
new SM 2.4 installation file listing, it would appear that the address 
files are shared by all of the e-mail accounts.  If I have that right, 
what is the name of the address file(s) and can I simply paste in the 
recovered file(s) into my new SM 2.40 installation?


Is there any other file I might try to recover that I should look for 
that could be pasted in my new installation?


My approach of pasting old files may seem awfully old-fashioned to 
younger folks on this list, but I go back to the MS-DOS days and know 
how to do it and it works reasonably well as long as I am replacing 
identically named files.


Thank you, in advamce for comments, advice, and guidance on the 
questions I have raised

all messages on the server are downloaded. I don't know what the magic

 It is putting new e-mails in all sort of strange order.  Other e-mail 
accounts on the same PC, work fine, i.e., in the requested 'order

Is there some way to force SM to do what I want, i.e., list incoming

Thunderbird would add them automatically, but you have to add them
manually in SeaMonkey. Instructions for Thunderbird should work.



I have been unable to make the Yahoo instructions work.  I think, but am
not certain, that it has to do with the security connection required
between SM 2.39 and Yahoo mail.

Also and maybe related; I am also finding that even via Web mail SM
repeatedly freezes or slows to a crawl when trying to look at Yahoo
e-mail messages that contain certain advertisements.

Has anyone else had these kinds of problems and how did you get the
connection to work?


Henrik, I've had a basic Yahoo Mail account for some time (basically to
handle Family Geneology stuff, photo's etc, that are too big for my
normal, ISP provided, e-mail account.

I inquired about setting up a mail account in my SeaMonkey to pull the
stuff from Yahoo, but never got it to work, because, it seems, there are
Yahoo e-mail accounts and there are Yahoo e-mail accounts! If you've got
a basic account, it seems they cannot be set up to forward their
contents to a real POP e-mail account or have it pulled into an
SeaMonkey email account.

I hope you can prove me wrong, though!!


Thanks for your comment.  I used to have Yahoo mail working to download
to SM until a bit over a month ago when I had a hard drive failure.  I
am simply trying to re-establish what I know used to work.  The only
difference now is that I am using SM 2.39 instead of an earlier version
whose number I don't recall.  As I am also having trouble
re-establishing my Network Solutions and Verizon e-mail accounts, I
wonder if this could be a SM problem?  Either that or I have not set up
SM 2.39 properly in some way that i don't understand.

Comments from anybody are welcome.


Daniel -- See David's suggestion to me and my response (below).  It got 
my system working.  Maybe that solution will work for you.

I am using Yahoo as follows:

Server Type: POP Mail Server
Server Name: pop.mail.yahoo.com  Port 995
User Name: @yahoo.com

Connection Security: SSL/TLS
Authentication Method: Normal password

This has worked fine for me for quite a while.

Dave


Thank you.  It turns out that one MUST include the '@yahoo.com' as part 
of one's user name or things don't work.  Now my problem is that every 
e-mail that was sitting on the Yahoo server is being downloaded - some 
10,000 of them!  Oh well, that is an improvement on not being to 
download anything.  Thanks again.

Yes. :)

tried this in the past, what are the name(s) of the files I need to copy

Bookmarks are in places.sqlite.
Personal address book is in abook.mab.

For more info, visit <http://seamonkey.ilias.ca/profilefaq/#transferring>.


Thank you for so quick a response.  That is a terrific tutorial.

1) How do I differentiate between the existing 'places.sqlite' and 
'abook.mab' files as I want to merge the existing files on the Win_7 
with the ones I have copied from my XP machine?  Rename the files from 
the XP computer 'places1.sqlite' and 'abook1.mab'?


2) Assuming the above approach will work, how do I then go about merging 
the two different bookmarks and personal address book files?


Thank you for your assistance in this regard.

Finally, you have been supporting Seamonkey (and its predecessors) for a 
very long time.  I can only thank you profusely for all the hours you 
devote and have devoted to this effort.  BRAVO!

I would note that the XP machine's C:\ hard drive partition was damaged 
in a recent power surge incident and while I have tested that I am able 
to successfully copy files from the PC's D:\, E:\, and F:\ partitions, I 
am not at all certain that the XP machine can be restored to a fully 
operable working condition.


Thanks, in advance, for any and all comments, fixes, suggestions, etc.
