Note that the semi-colon (;) at the end of the first line is mandatory.
The second line is merely a comment to remind you why you did this.
For this to be effective, you must terminate SeaMonkey completely and
then restart it.
While this certainly works I recommend to instead just go to
about:config, search for signon.startup.prompt and double-click the line
that will appear as a result. This is not only faster and less
error-prone but also clearer since your method overwrites whatever you
change in about:config after you restart SM.

Jens thanks for the info. followed your suggestion to 'about.config'
double clicked to 'false' and restarted.
This just pushed the passwords input request to the opened SM.

Now set the pref to ask only the first time it's needed.
I have noted that on occasion SM still will ask for the Master seemingly
at random once SM is open - even without bringing up Mail and NGs, or
needing to ask permission to save a new password. That may or may not
be a known issue, 1.1.18 did the same.
