First YouTube, then YahooMail, now I will soon no longer be able to track my

When on the USPS using SeaMonkey, I get this message:
Alert: As of April 30, USPS.com will no longer support outdated browsers. To

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.

For what it's worth, my UA string for USPS is spoofed as
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:59.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/59.0
and when the same (red) message appears I click on "Read more" and it tells me I am
virtuous and everything is ducky. No functional problems, but I haven't tried to do
much on USPS lately.
