From: John John - MVP on 13 Mar 2010 10:27 Dell printer? The Print Spooler Service Is Not Running? Dell printers are/were made by Lexmark and Lexmark printers place a Spool dependency on the LexBce server. Make sure that the LexBce service is running then try to start the spooler service again.

Doesn't turning it off kind of defeat the purpose of the sig delim? I'd rather complain to the people that don't follow the standard. 8-( I'll ask in my SeaMonkey newsgroup if there is a way to disable it. -- JD..

I think that the Mozilla readers can probably do this in the config files. SeaMonkey should be about similar to this: http://www.mozilla.org/support/thunderbird/edit Editing Configuration Files Let us know what you find out... > I'd rather complain to the people that don't follow the standard. 8-( It's a lot easier to do what Ken says...

Sorry, I didn't to imply that all newsreaders have that setting, but some do, so I was merely pointing out that your statement wasn't 100% accurate. > Doesn't turning it off kind of defeat > the purpose of the sig delim? Yes, if nobody has anything but their signature after the delimiter. But no, when people put their signature before material which should be quoted (and *many* people do that). I'd rather that everyone had their signature in the right place so I don't need to have it turned off. But since so many people don't have it in the right place, for me it's better to have it turned off. > I'd rather complain to the people that don't follow the standard. 8-( Your choice, but if you do, you'll do a lot of complaining. > I'll ask in my SeaMonkey newsgroup if there is a way to disable it. > > -- > JD.. -- Ken Blake, Microsoft MVP (Windows Desktop Experience) since 2003 Please Reply to the Newsgroup

I'll ask in my SeaMonkey newsgroup but I'm probably not going to change the setting. Why should I alter my preferred way of doing things for a person that doesn't know how to use the sig. delim. correctly? Different strokes for different folks, as the kids say. 8-) -- JD..
