Clizbe, from the Norman French de Clisbe. Anglicized sometime after 1066 to
Clisbe/Clisbee. The switch from 's' to the 'z' likely happened when pro
Monarchy members of the family left for North America during the Revolution
(English) ca. 1650 and encountered the Dutch in NY before moving to western NY
to their parcel of the Royal York Grant.

Short question: Have you EVEN tried upgrading to Seamonkey 2.25 to see if the
present Enigmail works with the same Enigmail as Seamonkey 2.24? I think I've
been using EM 1.6 since SM 2.22.1 or the 2.23 betas and upgrades are seamless
-- I just install the new version of Seamonkey.

I just sent myself a signed test message. The headers of interest to you are:

User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:29.0) Gecko/20100101
Firefox/29.0 SeaMonkey/2.26
X-Enigmail-Version: 1.6

About OpenPGP reports: Running Enigmail version 1.6 (20131006-1849)

Summary: Enigmail 1.6 release on Seamonkey 2.26b2.

Olav, I'm a both a builder and user of Seamonkey beta releases (Mac, Linux
x86_64 & i686). Any problems I have with new Seamonkey versions would be
reported during beta to the devel list. However, as Seamonkey's mailnews code
relies on and follows Thunderbird's, problems would show up in the Thunderbird
code first.  This might be easily remedied with updating the download page to
show compatibility.

Maria, as I pointed out above, the mailnew components of Seamonkey follow the
Thunderbird development process, as does Enigmail's. New releases of Enigmail
coincide with new releases of Thunderbird.

Seamonkey's releases are more frequent as they follow the release cycle of
Firefox. New Seamonkey releases tend to have most of their changes in the
browser components with the mailnews code (and consequently Enigmail
extension) being much more stable. Watch for new Thunderbird releases, then
you can be concerned with Enigmail's compatibility with the current Seamonkey.

Patrick is the only member who has been on the the team longer than I.
I am unaware of _ANY_ member who would be described as "Phil Zimmerman's man".
 I am also unaware of any purported break of OpenPGP. I think such an item
would gather a substantial amount of press, both technical and popular.

I would second Olav's suggestion that you write to Werner Koch at the
gnupg-users list with your concerns vis-a-vis GnuPG's implementation of
OpenPGP. Concerns about PGP should be addressed to Symantec Corp which now
owns the product.
