I'm hoping that, when Seamonkey updates, it doesn't adapt that same
behavior.


I don't know what will happen in the far future, but for the next
SeaMonkey version, 2.1, you have nothing to fear there.

HTH

Many thanks for this.  I'm glad to be able to put that fear to the side.

Thanks so much.

You sure?

Email addresses in the header pane are now tabbable.

Bug 479579 - Make all header fields tabbable, not just Subject and Date


Well, I was referring to all the extra buttons TB now has in the header
box. We won't have those, at least as far as SM 2.1 is concerned. I have
to admit that I didn't check any further. You may be right about more of
the existing elements being tabbable now.

Greetings,

Jens

I suppose there is a Marginal desire for tabs in Browsing I have tabs 
turned off in FireFox and SeaMonkey.


But using Tabs in email news reading is a totally dumbass idea. 
Thankfully I have that turned off in SeaMonkey now. There is simply no 
logic for it. who wants to try to read 8-10 messages at one time. I have 
enough trouble trying to read one at a time.  If it becomes permanent 
I'll try to find an extension to turn them off. Sometimes doing 
something new just to be new is wrong.

Tabs ROCK.  I don't use tabs in Mail/News, but now that you mention it 
using one tab per server sounds like a better idea than how I have been 
doing it - and if I could use/specify one Account per tab and have just 
that Account/server show in the Sidebar that would be all the better, IMO...


I love tabs...and so do a LOT of other folks.
