The collective of the SeaMonkey Council (of which I'm remaining a part, but just as one of multiple people, not as the project coordinator). I'm sorry to hear you've stopped running the project. Thanks for your work on the browser over the past few years (not to mention LCARStrek!). As a note, LCARStrek will continue to be developed (but now for both SeaMonkey and Firefox). ;-) As for me, my personal priorities have changed as stated in http://home.kairo.at/blog/2010-10/personal_priorities and I moved on, see also http://home.kairo.at/blog/2011-05/full_time_at_csi_mozilla - which now makes me say things like A beta user sample of [roughly 4-5x the release users of SeaMonkey] is too small to give us really good data on stability, but so far it looks stable enough to ship this as a final release. :) I'm not too far away, but not here as much as previously. And I feel good getting less vitriol about my work and working with people who can do Mozilla stuff full-time. ;-) Robert Kaiser As one who has read and mostly lurked in this group since its inception, allow me to say that your efforts on behalf of the SeaMonkey Project are greatly appreciated. We all have to step back now and again. But your work as project leader leaves SeaMonkey well established to go forward. Thank you Robert. -- James E.

You may wish to ask your nonISP email providers what SMTP port to use. This will generally be port 587. If SSL is used then use port 465.

If you are away from home and can't log on to your ISP then you can't send over their network. Use their web-mail. When I send emails here at home Cox's MX mail transit servers are the only Cox servers touching my email, not their SMTP or POP servers. It has been a couple of decades since I was a systems manager and I have probably forgotten more about networking than I ever knew! :-( Can you clarify the hierarchy of the Internet access process? Where are the Ports and other security-related settings and other addresses controlled? e.g. Is Port 25 or 26 or 465 or 587 *always* controlled only by whatever server controls the In and Out E-mail and Web access (incl. FTP and VNC)? Or does the ISP (the one I use from Home or the Wifi at the coffee shop or library or hotel or airport) have to allow access to those ports? HOME - My ISP My ISP-hosted E-mail In Out Web E-mail In Out *not* hosted by my ISP AWAY FROM HOME WIFI -- The Host Wifi (e.g. a coffeehouse) My ISP-hosted E-mail In Out E-mail In Out *not* hosted by my ISP Go to edit, Mail Newsgroup Account Settings, Outgoing Servers, Edit in Seamonkey to adjust the port settings for SMTP. The email provider controls what port can be used. But the ISP can block the use of a port. It is quite common to block port 25 outgoing to prevent the sending of spam. The use of alternate port will generally be allowed. When using HOST WiFi away from home the HOST WiFi provider will have control, but the real issue is what port does the server listen to? Port 587 is the most common if you can't use 25. The Internet provider and the email server provider must allow the port for it to work. But the ISP or HOST WiFi provider has little incentive to block anything but port 25. Still it pays to ask. The law of My server -- my rules generally controls. -- James E.

(I didn't find an addon for it) You may wish to consider AM Dead Link. http://www.aignes.com/deadlink.htm I've used it for some years now and it seems to work with Seamonkey (which it may find as Mozilla Suite) Opera, IE and Chrome.
