When on the USPS using SeaMonkey, I get this message:

I guess years of using the Mozilla Browser, and then SeaMonkey are
about to come to an end. I loved the idea of it and have been a loyal
user for about 15 years, but now I guess I need to switch to FireFox.
It's just a pain in the neck to keep switching between browsers for
certain websites. I like having one browser for everything.
Just wanted to let the group know that I found myself totally unable
to complete a customs form on the USPS website on Monday. I wound up
having to physically fill one out at the local post office to get my
package sent.
This is impacting more that SeaMonkey, I was unable to do so with the
CURRENT FireFox and Google Chrome either here on my linux mint 18.3
x64 system! I can only assume that their snooping is not happy with
linux browsers.
I assume that at some point I could spoof a user agent string that
will make USPS happy, but this is getting ridiculous when current
releases of major browsers are not being supported simply because they
are linux releases.

Does USPS know there is a problem?
IOW have *YOU* told the Postmaster General that there is a problem?
About 50 years ago I observed USPS vehicles driven in an
improper/illegal manner. I complained to local Postmaster. I was
effectively told "Go jump in the lake!" After all I WAS a college
student and Cayuga Lake was convenient. Email not having been invented,
I sent a "snail mail" letter to the Postmaster General. It got a prompt
response from state/regional/local administrators. The local postmaster
then stated "there was no problem" BUT "he would meet with me at *MY*
personal convenience. I declined as I had observed USPS drivers no
longer doing "bad things".
Depends on the vehicle, but my mailman drives a mail vehicle with the
steering wheel on the right hand side of the vehicle, so he can drive
down streets in the correct lane and put the mail in street side mailboxes.
Maybe the one you saw was driving in an improper/illegal manner because
they had to put the mail in mailboxes on the opposite side of the street
and his steering wheel was on the left.
Thank you for notifying the Postmaster General that there is a problem
with using the SeaMonkey browser on their website and being part of the
solution. 👏
