I was able to tell it to open with Firefox. That is as far as it would |
| 19 |
go tho. I have multiple profiles for Firefox and while it would let me |
| 20 |
pick which one to use, it would only show a error that it was already in |
| 21 |
use. It wouldn't open links as a new tab for example. I found someone |
| 22 |
else wanting the same thing as me and it appears it doesn't exist. Link |
| 23 |
is above. I may look into Palemoon. I found a post that seems to claim |
| 24 |
it works. I'm not sure that LastPass works with Palemoon so even if it |
| 25 |
does, another problem pops up. The huge change to Firefox with version |
| 26 |
57 isn't likely to help this. I'm also losing some addons to that change. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
So, Seamonkey doesn't have LastPass as a option but Firefox doesn't have |
| 29 |
a way to open email links in a new tab if one uses multiple profiles. |
| 30 |
Either way, something is broken. I'm not the only one that thinks this |
| 31 |
is weird for Firefox/Thunderbird to not have this sort of feature. |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
I think if I could tell Thunderbird to open with a command *and* I could |
| 34 |
add options to that command, I could get it to work. That would allow |
| 35 |
me to tell it to open with Firefox but to do so with a new tab instead |
| 36 |
of a new instance. Thing is, it allows me to tell it to use Firefox but |
| 37 |
does not allow me to add options. |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
I'll come up with something. I'm just not sure what yet. I wish I |
| 40 |
could just get LastPass to work with Seamonkey. That would only leave |
| 41 |
me with a very few sites that don't work with Seamonkey. |
