Hello, Tell me ...
I will install soon the latest SM official release version of SM. (2.40)
It is a 32 bits applications - Could you confirm ?
I see a "contributed build" that is 64 bit for linux... but don't see a
64 bit Windows build on the release page...
https://l10n.mozilla-community.org/~akalla/unofficial/seamonkey/nightly/latest-comm-release-windows64/
For what it's worth, I've been running this latest build:
User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:52.0)
Gecko/20100101 Firefox/52.0 SeaMonkey/2.49a1
Build identifier: 20160924005117
for a few days without any problems. Mind you, it's a simple setup, few
extensions, but I do use imap mail (1 mailbox), news (to this group) and
lightning via google provider to a shared family google calendar.
My only gotcha (so far) is the lack of Java applet support -
specifically 32-bit. I'll need to keep a 32-bit SeaMonkey for this since
it is for a government credential verification applet.
I've not been able to get Java (32bit or 64bit) to work with the Win64
version of SeaMonkey (https://l10n.mozilla-community.org/~akalla/). I've
also not been able to get most of my add-on's and plugins to work
either. So, after testing for a week and trying everything that I can
think of to get them to work I switched back to the Win32 version of
SeaMonkey on Windows. Note: I didn't expect many of the add-ons to work
yet, but was surprised when the plugins didn't.
I know that Firefox has dropped support for most plugins as of FF51(SM
49) which is why Java applets don't work. The only Plugins available are:
Adobe Flash Player(out of date, but successfully updated to
Shockwave Flash 23.0 r0 v. 23.0.0.162) and
Microsoft Silverlight 5.1.50428.0 v. 5.1.50428.0 updated to
Current version: Silverlight 5 (5.1.50709.0)
Both now satisfy their relevant test pages.
All of my plugins/add-ons work just fine in SeaMonkey 64 linux (2.40 and
2.45).
A query - how can I test that SeaMonkey (32 and/or 64 bit) supports a
Java Webstart application. I've done some googling, (and duck duck
going), but can't seem to see a simple "test here" site. There must be one.

Java Web Start software loads and runs the application based on
instructions in the JNLP file.
Try it now: Run Notepad

Works for me.
Thanks NoOp - that's what I couldn't find. Works for me too.
I'll continue using SM-64 v 49a on this PC - at least it gives it a
little testing. Also start trying additional add-ons, not that I use
many ... have the English (Australian) dictionary installed.
I'm a little less cavalier and running SM-32 v 48 a2 (as of today) on my
other PC - with somewhat regular backups in addition to the (maybe
risky) MS File History backup.
