Not sure what the status is of printing from Mozilla, but I know it's horribly broken.
I thought I should point something out to you regarding thunderbird, though. In .7.1, they changed the profile directory. You'll find that, previously, you had a ~/.mozilla-thunderbird/default.xlf directory. This has been replaced by just ~/.mozilla-thunderbird/default. To fix/reclaim your settings, all you need to do is copy everything from the old directory to the new directory. Then, you'll notice that prefs.js (your original) was saved as prefs.bak. Simply change the .bak to .js to overwrite the new one (first be sure to back up the new one, in case something breaks horribly!). This is what did it for me, and now I can enjoy .7.1 and still have all my settings and old mail, etc. Hope this helps. ~Zaq p.s. -- This should go without saying, of course, but I may be wrong on some of this information, as you are using a PPC and I'm on x86, so be sure to a complete backup of all of your thunderbird directory before trying this. --- Ed Sutherland <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I have a couple questions about Mozilla-Firefox and > Mozilla-Thunderbird > for the ppc. > > 1.
