In facts, the problem that still persists with SeaMonkey 2.26.1 with the French accentuation, is a problem with the UTF-8 encoding. I can't read or reply to messages that use the UTF-8 character encoding. It doesn't depend on the host system under which SeaMonkey is installed, because I had to face the same problem with OS X 10.6.8 and Kubuntu Linux 14.04, with SeaMonkey 2.26.1. I adopted the ISO-8859-15 character encoding, because UTF-8 has a visible bug. That's a major problem, because UTF-8 is set by default with SeaMonkey.
