Edge browser accesses the webmail page normally.
Can anyone suggest what may have changed to cause this issue and what might be
done to
correct it?
My opinion:
Cox changed their access parameters. They will of course deny it and
blame the user for an unsupported browser. That is normal ISP behavior.
A couple of thing you can try:
Change your UI string to not show SeaMonkey at all. The word "SeaMonkey"
tends to confuse isp's sniffers.
Make sure SSL is not checked and only TLS 1.1 and higher is checked.
PrefBar has a User Agent button, but its list of agents doesn't include a
current Windows
Firefox version. I easily can add as many new user agents as I need. Can
anyone suggest
user agent strings (and their labels) I should add to the PrefBar list?
You can view message source for the posters in the SM and FF groups and copy
theirs.
I think FF 61.0 may be out. This is one of the latest ones:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:59.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/59.0
