Disable selection of text when you reply to the message.

I asked this before and got a solution but I now use another computer and I can't find the old answer. It's under tools/options/advanced. I want the entire message that I answer to included in the response and not any text that happens to be selected. (I wish it was possible to print too, but it wasn't the last time I asked).

I use TB 24.5.0 on Win 7.

Tools > Options > advanced > general tab
Click the Config Editor button
at the top of the search page of type: response
Look for this line:
Mailnews.reply_quoting_selection; Value = true

Double click on this line to turn "True" to "false".

do the same for this line:
Mailnews.reply_quoting_selection.multi_word; Value = true

then close with top right X
Click OK to save the changes to the Options

  • When you reply to a message the sender's original text is abbreviated. How to restore the text of the original message? 24.5.0 using.

    Only a portion of the original message is displayed with a blue bar beside him, like this:

    This summary is only a small part of the original message. I would like to respond by inserting comments after the original text. With this brief presentation, I can't do that.

    Thank you.

    Here go us. The problem is how the sender responded to a message and sent to you. It inserted the response above the quoted text and a sig delimiter ' - '.

    When you reply to the message you have received, TB treated all underneath the sig as signature delimiter and it cuts. This is the expected behavior.

    http://email.about.com/od/emailsignaturenetiquette/Qt/Use_the_Standard_Email_Signature_Delimiter.htm

    So ideally the answer must be inserted as quoted text. Since it's out of your control, use "Forward" instead of "Reply" to circumvent the problem.
    You will then need to manually add recipients in the field "to".

  • No 'send using' blackBerry smartphones the choice when you reply to the no emails

    I have three e-mail address accounts pushed to my BB 9900 under BIS handset. On my old laptop 9700 I could choose answer an email coming from one account other than the one to which it was sent. When I clicked the dropdown at the top of the screen to answer, all three were offered as a choice. Now on my handset 9900, it does not give me the choice and only shows that the account with which the e-mail was sent, for the answer of. Is there a setting to change this, to allow a choice?

    Hello

    It's weird... forever, I think I understand that, when you answer, you don't have the choice... He will always use the email account through which he arrived. When you send, you will have to choose... but not when replying.

    Anyway, there is no arrangement... This is how it works.

    Good luck!

  • Save the forms editable on MAC - once saved problems cannot see the text when you click in the fields

    Using Acrobat 9 Pro, I created an editable PDF form that can be saved/printed using the reader.

    My clients can fill out the forms without problem, but when they save them and send back them to be transformed, the information they typed are no longer visible. You can view the information typed If you physically click in each field individually, but it does not automatically appear as I want to.

    It doesn't seem to be a problem with the clients using a Mac. Does make a difference if he clicks on SAVE or SAVE as?

    Does anyone have an idea what I can do to fix this?

    Yesterday I rekindled my settings of Firefox failing to solve a problem of gel. Since then, every time I start typing in a framework, I start to get boring text suggestions. In accessibility options, I disabled 'Find the text when you type' but it makes no difference. I studied the problem and tried on a solution - opening and closing of the downloads dialog box - that has not worked.

    It has worked before. Now, why not?

  • When you reply to a post in a yahoo chat room, I suddenly said... you have been disconnected from the chat because you have accessed YAHOO! MESSENGER from another computer or device? That is what it is?

    When you reply to a post in a salon political discussion of yahoo, I suddenly get the message... you have been disconnected from the chat because you have accessed YAHOO! MESSENGER from another computer or device.  I did not as far as I know?  Thank you, Charles

    Hello

    The message "you have disconnected because you access Yahoo! Messenger from another computer or device." appears when you try to connect twice with the same Yahoo! ID. Someone knows your password and he at the same time connecting with you or you have Yahoo Multi Messenger and accidentally logging in twice. One solution is to change your Yahoo! password or not to use Yahoo Multi Messenger with the same ID.

    Good luck!
