Gallagher Thanks - I was hoping there was a setting in Preferences even if I couldn't find one. Original email addresses can be stripped (laboriously) by using the 'edit message as new' function but surely, if Micro$oft Outlook Express can provide it as an optional function, SeaMonkey can too ? ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

an email ?
Assuming "old addresses" means the original senders
and recipients:
1) Forward inline, and edit the address fields as you see fit. In
the case of forwarding as plain text:
Original Message
Subject: Forwarding emails
Date: Sat, 2 Feb 2013 23:08:42 -0800 (PST)
From: Anne <<<= delete this line
Newsgroups:
mozilla.support.seamonkey
However, if you forward as HTML (see
below), you need to delete the entire table row (place the cursor
in any cell in the row and click the (X)
at the left edge of the cell) or else the underlying code will
still contain the email link(s). It's not enough to just delete
the address and leave the rest of the From: row.
Original Message
Subject:
Forwarding emails
Date:
Sat, 2 Feb 2013 23:08:42 -0800 (PST)
From:
Anne
<<<= delete this row
Newsgroups:
mozilla.support.seamonkey
2) If you need to forward as an attachment, I don't have a simple
solution, only a workaround for advanced users. Perhaps someone
else can offer something better.
a) Within SeaMonkey, copy the message to
a temporary folder so that it's the only
message in that folder.
b) Close SeaMonkey.
c) Locate the temporary folder within your
SeaMonkey profile folder (sorry, can't offer details for Mac)
and open it with a plain-text editor.
d) In the message header, locate the addresses you
want to strip and delete them. Save the file.
e) Restart SeaMonkey and look at the message in
the temporary folder. The address fields should be blank.
f) Forward the edited copy, not the original.
The original message that you copied at the
beginning should be intact, even if you fouled up the copy.

Yes, You can reply "inline" instead of replying "as attachment" ! You can then edit out the un-desired lines. I agree ... we can delete anything (in a text or in a html forwarded mail) we see IF -> "Edit" - "Preferences" - "Mails and Newsgroup" - "Composition" The first option in "General" MUST be "inline" instead of "As Attachment" ... don't forget to click on "OK" after change(if any) Thanks for the replies - but that means any images etc in the email are lost. What I want to do is forward the whole email, images and all but without the original sender's email address. That's correct ... you should try to delete only the parts you want to removebecause an html mail that we forward show us a lot of sourrounding squares. If you try to select some part with the mouse then hit delete, sometimes the complete mail is deleted :-) As you have tested "Edit as new" coulde be better because the list of adresses is not part of the mail. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Re: Stripping email addresses when forwarding emails
Anne wrote: Is it possible to strip old email adresses when forwarding emails ? Short answer.Yes. 1. If the email is just text, then you can delete the addresses from your email prior to you sending it. 2. If the email is HTML, the way I normally do this is to save the email, open it in text editor (Notepad or similar), edit out the stuff you don't want, then cut and paste what you do want into a new email and send.
