Is there a file or folder I need to delete to force the
settings I have chosen?
well this wrong archive behaviour self-resolved with a complete
close of program and being shut down over night...
Glad to hear, sean, 'cause, as I read this reply, it sprung into
my mind that, some time ago (Netscape Suite, Mozilla Suite,
maybe) the program required that the Profile be Write Accessible
(i.e. not Read Only) before it would function properly, so I
thought your choice of a SSD drive might be the problem.
But all's well that ends well!! ;-)
well.... I dunno why my NVMe ssd drive would be any different
read/write wise than the two mechanical spinning disks which I keep
for back up storage? All three get mounted at boot.
The original problem was Seamonkey no remembering the path to
either of the mechanical drives. That problem remains.
Today, one of my accounts is not honoring my setting the path to
archive messages in Local Folders, and is instead archiving within
it's account... once again it's the live/outlook account..
e'mail arrived in all four of my connected e'mail accounts a few
moments ago. Send the mail to the archives worked as I have set it up
in three of the accounts. but Not for the Microsoft one. even though
all four are set the same way...
So I did the turn it off turn it on again trick. Set the archive as
it was already acting in the Microsoft account. Closed the browser,
opened it again and set the archives for Local Folders once again...
Closed/Reopened...
and voila, it works as intended once again...
weird...
... or should that be ... "and voila, it works as intended once again...
*for now* "!!
Try switching off and re-booting a couple of times over the next week or
so and see if things continue to work!
YEP.. there must be some file I need to delete related to the
Microsoft/Outlook account... upon opening the program today, the
archives was once again located in the Outlook account, instead of in
Local Folders...
will try deleting the account and then wait a few days before recreating
it another day...
