I just did this upgrade. It seemed to run OK and all the email and
bookmarks from my old profile appear to have been successfully imported.
But there are a couple of issues:
1. Every time I start SeaMonkey v2.03, it asks for the master password
for the software security device. This is in spite of the fact that in
preferences->privacy & security->master passwords I have checked the
selection "SeaMonkey will ask for your master password the first time it
is needed". Surprisingly, if I click "cancel" on the password dialog box
without entering the password, SeaMonkey starts normally. Although I
apparently had entered a master password at some point with SeaMonkey
v1.18, the program wasn't asking me for it. How do I make v2.03 stop
asking me for the password? This is a VERY BIG PROBLEM for me.
2. I have several news server accounts. The first time I started
SeaMonkey mail and news v2.03, it seemed to be checking for new messages
in every subscribed group on every news server. Actually, I'm not 100%
sure *what* it was doing, but it took quite awhile before it would let
me actually view messages in newsgroups. Annoying.
3. In general, the new version seems a bit sluggish compared to the old.
I thought it was supposed to be faster.
4. Trying to compare settings and behaviors between the two versions, I
tried to start both at the same time. It won't let me do that. Whatever
version I start first, when I click on the icon for the other version it
starts a second instance of the version I have already started.
Thanks!
John
