This is addressed in bug #12916, written 11 years ago. In that bug report (a request for enhancement), there is mention of a mailredirect extension that should work with both Thunderbird and SeaMonkey. However, I don't know if the extension is compatible with Thunderbird 3.1.7 or SeaMonkey 2.0.11. I certainly don't know if it will be compatible with Thunderbird 3.2 or SeaMonkey 2.1. See <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12916>. -- David E. Ross <http://www.rossde.com/> On occasion, I might filter and ignore all newsgroup messages posted through GoogleGroups via Google's G2/1.0 user agent because of spam from that source. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
