I've been using Seamonkey mail as my primary email client for a long
time. My main email account is a gmail account, which has been in
existence for a long time as well.
Twice since I installed 2.49.1, I've had messages from Gmail saying that
someone tried to use my password from an unknown device. In both cases,
Seamonkey had been running against the gmail account for a period of
hours at least. One instance was my laptop, then today I got a similar
warning regarding my desktop machine (which runs Seamonkey mail all the
time).
In both instances, once I confirmed that the IP used for the "attempt"
was my own IP, things have gone back to normal.
Is anyone else seeing this sort of error? It may be that Google has done
something to change its security, but it does seem odd that I've only
seen the error since I installed the latest version, and it also seems
odd that Google can't identify the device, even though it normally shows
that I'm accessing the account from a Linux based machine. At the time,
the only thing accessing the Gmail account would have been Seamonkey...
I've also got another IMAP account which is behaving a little oddly. I
access it both with Seamonkey mail and through a webmail interface (the
webmail interface is the most recent version of Horde). Suddenly, any
time I attempt to use the webmail interface from Seamonkey, it is
reporting that the browser doesn't support javascript or javascript is
disabled. I've not changed anything, and I was able to access the
webmail interface after the upgrade to 2.49.1. I can still access it
correctly in Chromium or Firefox - its only Seamonkey that has the problem.
I'm using the official Arch Linux Seamonkey build:
User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:52.0) Gecko/20100101
Firefox/52.0 SeaMonkey/2.49.1
Build identifier: 20171107205422
