Thanks for the reply but I checked to see if anything you mentioned was
even possible and it came out "I don't got none of that stuff." <G>

I checked my file associations and could not find anything about this in
that system settings setup. Hunted all over. Nothing.

Checked my prefs.js file and it has no "network." anything listed for
some reason. Went to the about:config file in iceweasel and could not
find anything that looked like it might help. If there is the same type
of setup in icedove I have no idea yet how to access it.

Well, I appreciate your input and yes, I agree, it's one or the other in
your case and I appreciate your reply to let me know what you've found.
It has given me at least an idea that maybe I can do something but
really expect it to be corrected by bug fixes in the end. Or at least I
hope so.
