BTW, I found that hibernate's configuration option argument processing is
buggy: it chops off everything after the first space, eg. when parsing
this configuration option:

GaimLogoutMessage My computer hibernated.

the value passed to my config handler is just "My". No quotes (single or
double) or backslashes help here. I'll check if I can fix it quickly.
Anyway, I'll file a new bug report.

With Sylpheed, the problem was that when my laptop resumed and the
Sylpheed process was thawed, it immediately tried to download my mail,
before the laptop had a network connection (the network autodetection
scripts need a few seconds). With the scriptlet Sylpheed is thawed in
offline state, and is set to online after the network interfaces are
brought up.

With Galeon, the problem is similar if I have web pages open that refresh
themselves. (I'm not sure whether Galeon still pops up error message
windows when it encounters some network error as it used to be with
previous releases; if not, then maybe it's not worth to set it to
offline.)

Best regards,

norbi
