I can verify the issue when using any LO 5.x or above with WinXP. I seem to recall that I was able to set the email client path in earlier versions (4.x). When I finish performing a system upgrade I'll fire WinXP back up in VMWare or VirtualBox and back down to an earlier version than 5.x. In either event I do not believe it is is SeaMonkey issue but will let you know after I've tested further.

No, but the settings are pretty much the same for XP. When I was writing (in reference to the linked article), I was visually checking against settings in Windows 7. I don't have a copy of XP handy to verify against, and I know that the navigation and UI will be a little different than it is for later releases of Windows. However, what you're needing to do is to tweak the Windows registry so that a call to "send mail" is selecting the preferred mail client. That's something to do in Windows, and doesn't relate either to Libre (the tool requesting a mail client) or to Seamonkey (the client you want to use). You need to have things correctly defined in Windows. The research you need to do is with a search engine -- look for something like "set default mail client windows XP Thunderbird". You could also look explicitly for Seamonkey, although Thunderbird is sufficient for this kind of search, and when you're adjusting Windows, make sure you're selecting Seamonkey.

However, if I remember correctly, Windows XP had a couple of security holes that got fixed only if Outlook Express was installed and fully updated. If you're still running XP, you already have other security holes that won't be fixed, and for that, it's probably worth not opening additional holes by removing OE, even if you don't actually use OE. It's the same kind of thing as needing to keep Internet Explorer updated, even if you never deliberately touch it.

Wherever it may be, Ray, it has not yet been officially rolled out, otherwise my Seamonkey would have informed me that an update was available. None of which has anything to do with the substantive question, which I repeat below : Does Seamonkey not make any use of DNS cacheing ? I am staggered at the number of occasions when a re-visit to a page at which I was only a few second before results in the status text Looking up www.thehappypiper.yolasite.com or whatever.
