No.  I meant the ability to update from a LOCAL .mar file.  See the bug
report at <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=662677> and read
the comments, especiall starting at #13.

While the bug report itself is closed because the Wiki documentation has
been updated, the procedures did not work to update SM 2.1RC1 to
SM2.1RC2 using the partial .mar file.  I had expected a new SeaMonkey
bug report on this, but none has appeared yet.

On occasion, I might filter and ignore all newsgroup messages
posted through GoogleGroups via Google's G2/1.0 user agent
because of spam from that source.
