I have a user with netscape 4.79 in a imac 9.2.2 and the email is set to imap and can not delete any email the delete button is gray out, under imap server pref is set up to move to the trash first option. how can I change it to move delete files to the trash folder and just to let you know the trash looks like a folder to the actual trash icon.
Thanks

Or Netscape 7 (ideally on Mac OSX, though they still support Classic).
The following newsgroup can be helpful for Netscape issues:
netscape.netscape7.macintosh
on server: secnews.netscape.com
Choose "Secure Connection" option.

You're kidding, right?
Netscape hasn't released a browser that stacked up to its contemporaries since version 4.
Mozilla is marginally better, but anything with the Netscape brand name on it is trouble waiting to happen.

Well, I wasn't crazy about 4.79 and the early 6.0 was unusable, but 7 rocks. This is on OS X - not sure what the experience is like in Classic.
The browser is way ahead of IE in CSS support, Netscape's JavaScript is the real deal, and I don't know how I ever managed without tabs.
I've not yet found a mail client I really like on Mac (downloaded Eudora the other day though so maybe that could change) but at least Netscape lets me edit HTML directly (well, via cut & paste into Composer, but that's more than any other mail app). It also supports netscape.net webmail accounts via imap, and as it happened I had one already in addition to my pop3 account, and they both work fine. Pity there's no stationery support as in MS Outlook (saving messages as templates goes some of the way though), and also the message filters are a bit basic so you can't play different sounds depending on the sender for example, but on the whole it does the job pretty well.
Composer is hopeless I admit.

Get Camino. It puts anything with the Netscape brand on it to shame.
If you think Netscape is the be-all and end-all of mail clients, I'm afraid I can't help you there.
