It ain't broke so I will keep it. Don't :) I'm using SM all day long, every day, not only the stable release but now the beta and it works very well for me! It seldom crashes (sometimes the Flash plug-in does, but I only need to reload the single page), I always have at least 15 tabs open, there are 10 IMAP accounts + 2 newsgroup servers checking messages. So, my experience is positive with SM. GAbriel ps: I'm on OSX :) ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Current levels still support migration from 2.0.x levels so your only real disadvantage is the missing security patches. The only problem I have with 2.9 (I normally wait a week before adopting) is that the Newsgroup function Click here to remove all expired articles ceased functioning a couple of levels back. Bug reports https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=727951 indicate that this has been fixed for Thunderbird 13.0 and apparently SM 2.10. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Yes - I'm stuck in the past with my G5 iMac, but that's ok by me as there are some features (function and interface) in the 1.x.x SM series that I find very useful and miss in the 2.x.x re-vamping. Sitting out the 2.1 through 2.6 releases because of growing pains has worked out well for me, though I think I also skipped another one between 2.7 and 2.10 because of a *very* annoying interface bug which has since been fixed - still waiting for the fix for the Mac interface bug I wrote, targeted for 2.11...that one will be welcome! -- - Rufus ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

I understand your concern, but I have constantly upgraded my version and have NOT experienced the problems others have. That is not to say they don't have problems, but that I did NOT experience them. I suspect that some of the problems might be attributed to something other than the SeaMonkey browser.

I did much the same...skipped a lot of them between 2.0.14 and 2.9 because of what I'd been reading, and I still keep a copy of 2.0.14 and it's pristine Profile folder around.

It ain't broke so I will keep it. Most SeaMonkey newsgroup subscribers are presumably using the latest version, which is why most posts in here are in regards to the latest version. For instance, if you read posts in this newsgroup from April 28, 2011 to June 10, 2011 (the time period when 2.0.14 was the latest version), you;ll find that most posts are in regards to 2.0.14. Plus 2.0.14 as known public security vulnerabilities, which is why it is not recommended. Don't forget that the users who don't have problems have no reason to post; so if I were you, I wouldn't worry about updating. Especially considering you have people in here to help you if you have any issues. -- Chris Ilias http://ilias.ca Newsgroup moderator ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
