If I remember correctly, the messenger component in SM is based on the Netscape/Mozilla foundation code, not written from scratch. Seems like the bug made it to SM because of that. If one of the devs would like to comment on that please do so, thanks. A common (misconception?) is that since the browser is loaded to memory then that's the reason but the devs a long time ago said that wasn't so but rather a bug. -- *Jay Garcia - Netscape/Flock Champion* www.ufaq.org Netscape - Firefox - SeaMonkey - Flock - Thunderbird ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
