How embarassing, this is being caused by my profile.

Sorry for the false alarm :(

And thanks Scott for testing this out, glad to know it was just me!

Mac OS X

Post by mozuser »

In the Mac OS X build, if you close the main window, you get to a state where you can't do anything--you have to quit and restart the application to do anything. Since this is a highly visible bug, it might be nice to fix it for 0.2 if it doesn't take too much work.

Offline extension

Post by Kallisti »

I have a problem using Offline extension with this build. Whenever I try to go online again TB crashes. I am using 0901-build with WinXPPro, no other extensions or themes.

It's not a rumor, I've been living in misery for the past couple of builds!!! lol, but seriously, we need to fix this. I will buy the fixer a muffin ok???? Good. Now get to it :D


hmm... I have last tried enigmail with the 08/26 build which worked fine. It would be a very big suprise if it really wouldn't work with the latest release as the difference between the 08/26 and the 09/01 release is probably quite small.

I'll check it, but I won't be able to update anything before Friday :(

It still has the same problems with the View>Messages menu, which everyone appears not to care about.

<releasenotesQuote>Improved Spell Checker

The spell checker no longer attempts to spell check quoted HTML and plain text replies. It now ignores urls inside of the message as well. </releasenotesQuote>

How about it NOT spell cheking Forwards also? Especially the "Original Message" stuff.

I'm really note sure ;(
I created a new profile, copied my mail folders over, training.dat, copied the pref.js and edited the file addresses,
and the problem stopped.

The funny thing is I had just made the new profile less than a month ago.
I'm not sure why it got corrupted.

I've already posted about the problems -- twice. Nobody cares.
