Too many sites these days just do not support links from e-mail to the
SeaMonkey browser (no matter how I set it to spoof Firefox). For
instance Netflix e-mail links go to an "unsupported browser" page no

computer. I was wondering if there is any way to set my e-mail
composer (in SeaMonkey) to have the option to link to the actual
Firefox browser when I click on a link rather than the SeaMonkey one.
I want to continue to use the SeaMonkey mail side and also the actual
updated Firefox browser side, at least as an option. By the way, I'm
using SeaMonkey version 2.49.1, which I have been happy with... afraid
to upgrade to version 2.49.4 since who knows what might happen to
profile etc. Is it possible that just upgrading to the latest SM
version might solve this?
Thanks.
You are using SeaMonkey 2.49.1, but posting to this newsgroup with
"Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:45.0) Gecko/20100101
Firefox/59.0.3"?
No wonder Netflix thinks you are using an outdated browser.
Try changing the user agent to "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64;
rv:59.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/59.0.3". The rv: and Firefox/ match in
every version I have ever used.
I did try changing the user agent as you asked (I think it is done now.)
I still get an error page on the Netflix site in the SM browser when I
try to watch a video. It says: "Netflix system requirements for HTML5
Player and Silverlight: You can use our HTML5 player or the Silverlight
plug-in to watch Netflix TV shows and movies on PCs running Windows XP
or later, and Intel-based Macs running OS X Tiger (v10.4.11) or later.
You'll find a complete list of requirements below for HTML5, Silverlight
4, and Silverlight 5." claiming that this browser doesn't fit that
requirement (although I think it does.)
Anyway, the e-mail link works to play videos when I open it in Firefox,
Chrome and Edge. But not SeaMonkey with that user agent. What I need
is a right click to "Open Message in Firefox" or whatever, not "Open
Message in a New Tab." Would that be impossible?
