    For now I've gone back to the 2025.12.17 basilisk 55 version since that still works right. Figure there must have some kind of change in the browser in the 2025.12.25 update.

    Tried toggling javascript.options.weakrefs to true, it was at false but no change. Should mention that I'm getting the same result with a new profile and no addons.

    Roy, The last two basilisk 55 versions are not directing properly on certain sites. For example this one: https://www.legacy.com/us/obituaries/washingtonpost/browse If you scroll down and go to page 2 it doesn't update anymore, it stays at page 1. The last version to work was December 20, 2025. I looked at the web console for errors but there isn't anything.

    @roytam1, thanks for fixing the mailnews Outgoing Server settings. This app still works very well with gmail so glad to have that working again.

    Thanks for the link. Wish it was more than one year though.

    Thanks for that. Typically I get it from here and they're pretty good at staying up to date: http://portableappz.blogspot.com/search?q=java

    Probably not too many using Java these days but I still have some use for it. Getting an xul.dll crash with the latest Basilisk 55 when attempting to run a java test: https://www.javatester.org/version.html Reverting back to June 28 xul.dll resolves it. The latest java version is SE 8 U451 and can only be run on Win7+.

    @nicolaasjan Are you the one that's maintaining yt-dlp for Windows 7? If so thanks for that, it works great with the MPC-BE player and should extend the player's life when they stop supporting it on Win 7. I also didn't know how useful yt-dlp is for streaming almost every video out there until recently. Can't live without it now: https://github.com/nicolaasjan/yt-dlp

    Don't feel bad, he won't respond to posts about mailnews bugs either. Guess it gets on his nerves :-)

    It's surprising that the monopolistic Microsoft hasn't been more challenged yet for its forcing people to abandon perfectly good computers in order run Windows 11. No wonder it's had a slow uptake. In my experience Windows 7 has turned out to be their best so I'm staying with it for as long as possible, even though I've got Windows 10. It improved on XP but still remained fast and configurable with its classic themes and easy ability to install third party apps.

    For those on Windows 7 is anyone using e3kskoy7wqk's nightly versions? https://github.com/e3kskoy7wqk/Firefox-for-windows-7/releases Currently on the latest 140.0a1-v3 and it's excellent, even better than on Win10 imo. The r3dfox ESR versions are good too. Still finding many uses for these older versions as well so thanks for all of the great options.

    Roy, I know you're busy and thanks for your work but the last mailnews version I've been able to use is from 10/26/2023 because that's the last one where the Outgoing Server (SMPT) is working properly to edit the accounts. Since then it's always blank. The Hotmail accounts I gave up on since they're dead and added Gmail accounts in their place and it still works good for those, it's just a matter of restoring the Outgoing Server. I've tried starting from scratch, new profile etc. to no avail, maybe it's there and I'm missing some setting.
  13. DanR20
    Another bug with mailnews is there's no way to add or delete anything from the outgoing server because the interface won't open. Even tried with a new profile so it's something inside the program.

    Welcome to the club. My memory has been going for as long as I can remember, which isn't long, :--)

    Hotmail OAuth2 was not functional in mailnews but Roy seems to have gotten it though there's still some bugs to work out.
