Yes that's what the difference is now. 2.49.5 seems to drop the plugin.

Re: 2.53.1, IMAP, and RSS Feeds

Currently running 2.53.1 on Puppy Linux (Bionic Pup 8.0).
My lone issue with sound in the browser now resolved, I am also 
experiencing an annoyance with the Mail and Newsreader.


I have one IMAP account setup for email and I have several RSS feeds in 
the newsreader.


Whenever I select a folder in the Folder Pane to review the messages 
within that folder, the corresponding view in the Thread Pane does not 
update.  The messages shown in the Thread Pane, after selecting a new 
folder, are the messages that were shown in the previously selected folder.


In order for the Thread Pane to update, I must select a different folder 
in the Folder Pane and then select the desired folder a second time.


This behavior is more likely to occur when switching from an RSS feed 
folder to an IMAP folder or doing the reverse.  While switching between 
IMAP folders this behavior occurs less often and the same holds true 
when switching between RSS feed folders.


I notice zero difference if different layouts are used.  I have deleted 
all MSF files in the IMAP and RSS storage areas and I did notice a brief 
respite from this issue but that lasts for only a few minutes.


Thoughts and suggestions welcomed...thanks in advance.





I can confirm the issue for all kind of folders in the Folder Pane (POP, 
IMAP, RSS, Local).

Thanks, that's good to know. I take it that all we need to do for this
particular issue, then, is to use the --enable-legacy-db flag when
building NSS?

Didn't work for me either. Just got off chat with Netflix. They only

My suspicion is that Netflix simply doesn't want to bother with 
Seamonkey, not that there's an underlying problem with capabilities. 
Thus, I suggest spoofing.  If you don't have PrefBar to do spoofing on 
the fly, what you may want to do to go to about:config and do a prefs.js 
entry to show the older version for just Netflix:


  general.useragent.override.netflix.com  Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; 
Win64; x64; rv:52.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/52.0 SeaMonkey/2.49.5


Or you could use the same setting and simply spoof a current version of 
Firefox:


  Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:73.0) Gecko/20100101 
Firefox/73.0


If they're complaining about Seamonkey, chances are pretty good that 
they're also throwing errors for accesses from PaleMoon and Waterfox.
