I have Win 7, SM 2.9. In the past week I have had a problem with

SM 2.9 is still in beta. There was a problem with SM 2.9b2 (maybe also
2.9b1, didn't check) where compacting messages (automatically or
manually) led to message corruption. This issue, which I was hit by
myself, has been fixed in SM 2.9b3 which has just been released. Of
course it's very unfortunate that an issue as serious as this one made
it to the Beta channel, but at least it was caught before release.

According to the below comment (which is from one of the core MailNews
developers), the only way to fix it is to repair affected folders
manually, which I don't recommend to average users since it can lead to
even more corruption, so I won't explain it further here (however,
that's what I'll do to repair my folders). Your only other options are
accessing your backups (if you have some) or deleting faulty messages.

Thanks for the info.  I thought it might have been the problem, it's the 
first I've had with SM in a long, long time.  I've been a user since the 
Netscape days.  I've already updated to the last release SM 2.9b3. Do I 
need to do anything more, like clean out the Inbox?

What really irritates me is all this rush to add new features when there 
are plenty of problems lying around needing to be fixed. Get the basics 
working before adding more stuff and running the risk of introducing more 
bugs. One TB bug I was tracking, and am still getting the odd bugzilla  e-

We don't all want bleeding-edge software, we want reliability.

Mind you, when looking for alternatives, they all seem to have big

Is there any way to compact offline newsgroups (reduce the size of the mbox file)?

2011-04-03 Thread P.
Hello.

I have installed SeaMonkey v2.0.13 but I cannot find a way to expire
articles (physically reduce the size
of the mbox file in which newsgroups messages are stored) in offline
newsgroups.

Using the Retention option does remove articles from view but the
mbox file remains untouched
(and steadily growing in size).

 I was hoping for something to also duplicate the sent mail, local
 folders etc..

If you use an IMAP mail account, drafts, trash etc for that account will
reside on the server. You can then set your news account(s) to use
folders of the IMAP account instead of Local Folders for sent, drafts,
archives and templates.

This is not really duplication, but synchronization, so it does not
provide the same data protection that simple duplication does, but it
does provide conveniance. (If you're not used to IMAP, you'll need to
get used to the fact that deleting a message on one PC will also delete
it on the server and the other PC.)

One problem is that you need an email provider that provides IMAP, and
that since all mail is stored on the server that provider needs to
provide enough mail storage space for your needs.
