You're wrong.
OR, how about killing javascript, in Thunderbird.
Security risk, as pointed out above.
There was a Feature in Communicator that was great, you could check for dead links and then ask it to delete them. It never saw the light of day in Mozilla.
Another security (and privacy) risk. Imagine getting some spam with links. If SeaMonkey would check those for you, the spammer would get notified that your e-mail address exists, along with other data that's part of the HTTP request. Then you'd get even more spam.
One thing you have resisted the temptation of doing is using Active-X. I salute you for that. Now That I have bragged on that, there probably will be an announcement next month that Active-X will be built-in.
There will never be ActiveX, as it's a proprietary technology that's done more bad than good.
Active-X is the reason now for bout 98% of all the malware floating on the internet.
Most malware these days comes from social engineering, not ActiveX. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
