Read the first two lines of my explanation.


If you send as HTML, you can specify the image size in percent (of
the screen size). Do Insert | Image, navigate to the image location
on your computer, and select it. In the insert dialog, choose the
"Dimensions" tab, "Custom size," and enter the width in "percent"
(not "pixels"). SeaMonkey will also insist that you enter an
"alternate text," which should be a short descriptive word or
phrase.

You need not specify both height and width; 99% width is enough.



Thanks for the replies.
I am aware of and have used this method when inserting photos. 75% width
works well for me.
My point is that it is a fairly cumbersome process particularly when
compared to the Apple mail options on image size.


Fair point. Sorry I have nothing more to offer.



How about resampling images for email. Say reduce to no larger than 600
or 800 px on a side. I use ImageMagick on Linux and IrfanViewer on
Windows to batch reduce images for web use.

The advantage is is manifold. The embedded image will not be too big to
be viewed by the recipient for typical monitor resolution.

Next scaling with constraining HTML attributes does not REDUCE the data
size of the image. Whereas resampling an image will, and such reduction
can dramatically reduce the size in bytes. No everyone has real
broadband and may have limited data plans

Lastly email's legacy was a text-only protocol, so binary data must be
encoded to character data. Such encoding can balloon binary data often
doubling its size making the bandwidth issue worse. So that fresh from
the camera 5-10MB image can easily balloon to 7-20MB when encoded for
SMTP.




For Windows, give the freeware FastStone Image Viewer a spin - the email
option (File|Email|Send Email) automatically defaults to a 640x480
resize, which you can change of course from 120x90 to 2272x1704 (or
custom size). You can also compress multiple images into a single file
for the email attachement. Email option works (for me) flawlessly with
SeaMonkey.

http://www.faststone.org/index.htm
   http://www.faststone.org/FSViewerDownload.htm

The FastStone Photo Resizer is also free also & works well:
http://www.faststone.org/download.htm


Thanks for all the replies. I guess I'll just continue to use the 'resize' 
within mail composer.
My friend no longer has the ability to manipulate files, is easily confused and 
frustrated.
My best to you all.

Mail > Compose > Photographs

2015-10-05 Thread HilsB

I frequently mail to an old friend in Calgary. He has dementia and is running 
into difficulties.
I often include photographs in the mail. If I just 'drop' them then they display overfilling the 
screen. If I attach them then my friend then has to double click to call up another program which is 
not easy for him.
I appreciate that the size of the photo display can be reduced via the 'reply' icon but this is very 
clumsy and contrasts to the Apple Mail program where small / medium/ large options are prominent.
Does anyone have a workaround or an easy way of including photos that do not overfill the 
recipient's screen. I am anxious to maintain meaningful contact with him for as long as possible in 
a way that is that the recipient simply has just to open the mail?


PS. Many many thanks to the SeaMonkey team for all their efforts.

  Well the only issue I have run across is That I can't empty the

I am not using Yosemite, but Lion on Mac. I believe the Cache does
indeed work. The preference button does clear the cache, even though
the
cache size number remains unchanged. To prove the cache is cleared use
the preference to clear the cache. Now type about:cache in the
address
bar in the browser window and press return and you will see that the
cache has been reset to zero.

The most recent SeaMonkey did empty cache by going to advanced
preferences and clicking empty cache. After switch to Yosemite. That no
longer works only using the empty cache button on the PerfBar menu.


You can still clear the cache using SeaMonkey's own UI.

1) Edit | Preferences | Advanced | Cache:
Click the [Clear Cache] button

OR

2) (from a browser window) Tools | Clear Private Data (shortcut:
Ctrl-Shift-Del), provided you have checked the Cache button at Edit |
Preferences | Privacy  Security | Private Data.

And of course, if you've specified in the same dialog that private data
should be cleared on exit, SM will do so automatically each time you
close the program.


The cache empty does work in SeaMonkey up to Mavericks (OSX.9.5)
But does not with Yosemite.  At least I haven't been able to get it to
empty. Except through empty cache button on Prefbar.




if you disabled PrefBar extension, would the internal SM way work then?

Extensions are usually the cause of any problem, after an SM updateI'm just extending 
that logic to an OS upgrade.

Let's go one step at a time...

- If you mean the Seamonkey master password, I don't think there is a
workaround. However, your friend types that every single day in order to
check his e-mail -- unless he's in a state of diminished mental capacity
(stroke, concussion, heavy painkillers, whatever) he should be able to
remember it.
- However, if what you want is to extract the saved mail passwords from
his Seamonkey so you can check his e-mail for him in a different
computer, then it should be possible to look them up in the Seamonkey
Data Manager.



One requires the master password to display saved passwords in the Data
Manager.


Only *if* one was set in the first place.


Yes. Correct and a very good point. :)

Thanks for all suggestions. Unfortunately my friend has heart and other problems and is under medication. He has given 
me what he remembers but they do not give access.  I'll be seeing him on Friday and I'll try him again.

This happens here (Isle of Man)from time to time.  One day it was very persistent and on contacting my ISP 
their technician confessed it happens to him too.  His workaround was to shutdown and reload his mail program 
in extreme cases if that didn't work shutdown and restart the computer as well.
When it happens I give the program three chances to connect to the mail server if not I shutdown and restart

That's the easy way.

If you prefer the clumsy, counterintuitive, and misleading way of imposing a

here's how:

In the left-hand panel, paste the domain name into the Search Domains window 
and hit Enter. If SeaMonkey has
a record for that domain, it will show up underneath; in that case, click it 
and you'll see a listing on the
right of the various data types SM has stored. On the Permissions tab, you 
should see
 outlet-spacci.blogspot.com   Set Cookies
 ( ) Allow( ) Allow for Session(•) Block
as described previously.

If SeaMonkey returns no hits for this domain, however, that means it has no 
record of it and is enforcing your
default policies. You will have to create a new record.

Adding a new domain manually through the Cookie Manager is clumsy, 
counterintuitive, and misleading. Clear the
Search Domains window and you'll see a list of all the domains for which SM 
has records (domains for which
it doesn't apply your default policies). Select any one of them. At the bottom 
of the right-hand panel, click
the Add button, which will turn into a Select a type button, with a data 
entry window to the left of it,
already prepopulated with the domain you selected. Paste the domain you do want 
to modify in there, choose
Set Cookies from the Select a type pulldown, and click Add.

You will now see a second entry at the top under the domain you don't want to 
modify; the new entry says:
 Set Cookies
 [x] Use Default   ( ) Allow  ( ) Allow for Session  ( ) Block
Don't be scared, and more importantly, don't believe it. This does NOT affect 
the domain you don't want to
modify. Clear the Use Default checkbox and select Block for this second 
entry. Nothing happens; you have
to trust that this is actually working and that it applies to the domain you've 
entered.

To verify that it did work, paste the domain you do want to modify into the Search 
Domains window. Now SM
will return one hit, and if you click it, you can see the block has been imposed. 
And if you clear the Search

been affected.

Hope this helps.

cookie manager these cookies are listed as 'blocked' but clearly are
not. Any other ideas?


If blocking new cookies doesn't remove old ones, you'll have to remove the old 
ones manually. If you do so and
they come back, then you have a problem and should report back.

Go into the Data Manager and click the domain name on the left to show its contents. On 
the Cookies tab on
the right, if you see any cookies, select and delete them (sorry, you have do 
do them one at a time). When
you've deleted them all, the page should revert to a listing like this:

outlet-spacci.blogspot.com   Set Cookies
( ) Allow( ) Allow for Session(•) Block

If the Block option is not selected for the domain or any of its subdomains, 
click to enable it.


Here is where we are at -

Cookies default is set at 'originating only' 'no 3rd parties' and 'session only'
Tonight have selected the 'outlet-spacci.blogspot.com cookies (3) removed both individually and as a group and 
set to 'block'. This has been repeated three times. On each occasion I have exited Seamonkey then shutdown / 
restart the Mac. The dam cookies are still there -

 _utma expire   17 Nov 2014
_utmb   17 Nov 2012
_utmz   18 May 3013  Under 'cookies' and permissions only'

Where do we go from here? replies appreciated.

This happened to me a while ago the unwanted mails were in the

These are values you entered in website forms. These are stored
globally, per field name, rather than per site. That's why they
are
available under the asterisk pseudo-domain.

The Permissions tab is mostly there because you need a way to
define new
permissions (the the bottom of that tab when it's active) even
if you
haven't stored any other data for a specific domain.


2. When I look at cookies from some domain that I have never
heard of, I
presume this is someplace that I must have been. Can I remove
these
cookies safely?


It's your data. You can remove whatever you want, but some
sites might
stop working properly when their cookies are gone.

BTW: Domains you never heard of are probably from partner
websites, ad
hosters etc.


3. I clicked on lowes.com ( site I go to now and then). It
shows three
variations: www7.lowes.com, www.lowes.com, and lowes.com.
Permissions is
active. Why do I get three variations?


Because they are not necessarily the same. Often they are, but not
always. Each domain may host and deliver completely different
websites.


What is www7 about?


Probably part of a CDN (Content Delivery Network) or similar,
i.e. to
distribute users/requests over different subservers for load
balancing
purposes or performance improvements.


My choices for each of these three entries are: Use Default,
Allow,
Allow for
Session, and Block. What is Default?


The default you set for that kind of permissions. See Preferences.


4. In general, how do I determine what these domains are?


Totally depends on your browsing habits, i.e. up to you.


Tendency on unknown ones is to remove them and block them
forever.


That is completely up to you (i.e. your character, liking,
level of
mistrust etc.).


5. What is the difference between Cookies and Permissions?


I would have thought that's pretty self-explanatory. Cookies
are bits of
information stored on your computer. Permissions include (but
are not
limited to) cookies permissions, i.e. settings that allow or deny
storing cookies for certain domains.


It would be
helpful to have a discussion of each of the four headings
(i.e. Cookies,
Permissions, Preferences, Passwords that specifically explains
what each
one is and discusses things that one might want to do with/to
each one.


Cookies: See which/whether cookies you have for each domain,
check their
contents and optionally delete ones.

Permissions: Settings per domain, like whether storing cookies,
loading
images, saving passwords, opening pop-up windows etc. should be
allowed
or denied.

Preferences: Things like per-domain site zoom and last upload
directory.

Passwords: Should be obvious (includes MailNews passwords!).
You can
show passwords, too.


6. Maybe there could be a discussion of how to handle things like
Cookies and Permissions.. What is each one. What can be
done with
it. Hints about things that can be removed.


AFAIK you can remove any entry that is visible in the Data
Manager,
except for the asterisk pseudo-domain.


7. What is the relationship between how I set parameters in
Edit/Preferences/ and how I set parameters in Data Manager?


Preferences is for changing defaults, while per-domain settings
are
reflected in the Data Manager.

Thanks.
Why do we have to insert the Master Password to view each domain 
password?  Seems a bit 'over the top' to me.
If you have the Master Password then you should be able to view 
all domain passwords.

That postponed the master password window until I went to mail. One
of the features about SM is it allows you to see your sorted
passwords. But I can't use it or get my email. when SM2 it ask for
the email server password it never makes it to the server and the
master password window appears again. How do I get rid of the
password issue? To my knowledge I never set a master password and I
have tried all the password combinations that I might have if I had.
I want to use SM 2 but with out email it voids the reason I went to SM.


Just in case you did set a Master Password, *AND* you know the master
password, go to Edit=Preferences=PrivacySecurity=Master Password
and select Change Master Password, enter your Master Password and
leave the two fields for the new password blank. Apparently, this
removes the Master Password without wiping out all your passwords.


He say that evenwhile he had set a master password ... he did not
remember it ... so he will not able to do enter your Master Password
of your suggested procedure ...


I've had this master password issue ever since I downloaded 
SM2. Others have reported the same issue. Many have found 
toggling the true / false in 'signonstartup' worked for them but 
not for me.
My workaround was to screen shot all passwords from SM 1.1.18 
delete and download SM2 and then set a 'new password'.
I'd be very interested if anyone can confirm that you can enter a 
'blank' password and if so any consequences. I'm on a MAC with 
Snow Leopard.

A big 'thank you' to all concerned for producing SM.

Software security Master Password

2009-10-31 Thread HilsB

First thanks to all for a great upgrade to SM2.
I'm on a MAC intel and downloaded / installed SM2 which replaced 
1.1.18.  SM2 would not recognise Master Password from 1.1.18. but 
would allow a new Master Password but would delete all held 
p'words etc.. Hmmm!
Redownloaded 1.1.18 and, using password accessed all 'old' 
p'words etc.. Screen grab and took hard copy as backup. Inserted 
new password into SM2 and visited critical sites to register 
p'words from hard copy.  So far so good.
Now at each startup of SM2 'Master password required for Software 
security device' - no other passwords required after registering 
1.1.18's mail / newsgroup passwords.
My question - how to stop SM2 startup 'Master Password Required' 
at each startup.

Still need to be able to have the browser acknowledge the imported

I looked at the Password Manager and at least most of them seemed to
have transfered but the prompt doesn't appear to work so I can't use
them.

I still have to use SM1.1.8 until this is fixed since I have many many
sites with passwords stored in every strange manner that these site
managers can think of so I can never remember them even if I tried.


Help!!!
On my MAC and 1.1.18 I called up the Password manager and 
accessed the stored login and passwords.  As a precaution I used 
a screen grab to produce a printable record. If SM2 plays up in 
this area there is a printed backup.


Would like to thank all those involved in producing SM and others 
for their great work.
