Seamonkey 1999040710 win32 April 7 build Hardware: Win95 1. Launch apprunner 2. Open Messenger via Task menu 3. Click on New Msg, put an email address in the To: field that you can view in 4.5., type in a subject and Send. 4. Open 4.5 in Windows and get the message. The message is displayed as a link with a Type C, Encoding 7bit. At this point you have to click on the link and select an option for viewing. Note: this was only tried from Windows Seamonkey, not sure at this time, if linux sends mail this way.

Is this MIME stuff that you're working on, Rich?

virtual phil --> I'll take a look at this first. I know I18N was checking some stuff in over the weekend involving mime encoding of outgoing messages...that may or may not be the cause. How about this though...our first instance of seamonkey being better at something (in mail anyways) than 4.5!!! It can view the message just fine.

Not sure....I haven't done anything yet with sending side mime stuff. Can you send me the message and I can take a look at it. - rhp

Rich, I don't know if it is you either. If you want to see the problem, just send yourself a message using the mail client. Try to view the message in Communicator 4.5. You'll see the problem.

Is this Win95 only? I have a problem of reproducing this (apprunner craches as soon as opening the messenger, tried 4/12&4/13 build). Could someone send a message with the problem to me (nhotta@netscape.com)?

Naoki, you need to rename your prefs.js to prefs50.js in order to get passed the crash. I'm afraid we renamed the prefs file before we properly broadcasted the change to everyone to give them a heads up. For more details see Seth Spitzer's posting in the mailnews newsgroups.

Actually, I had no prpoblem with the 4/12/99 build until I renamed prefs.js to prefs50.js. So this change starts with 4/13/99 build, right? In the meantime, I could run 4/12/99 build with the old prefs.js and have not seen this problem with it. Is there a sa mple prefs.js entries you are using somewhere. The one I'm using is found here: http://rocknroll/users/momoi/publish/bugs/

Sorry, the URL was wrong. It is prefs.js found here that I'm using: http://rocknroll/users/momoi/publish/

Ok. I renamed prefs.js to prefs50.js for 4/13/99 build and mailed a msg to 4.5x client. I still cannot reproduce this problem.

Since you had a specific case for this, can you verify this bug, Esther?

Using win 32 build 1999042708 and linux build 1999042708 this now worksforme too. It magically went away. Verified as worksforme
