Hi,
I'm looking for anyone who tried to integrate Seamonkey > 2.49 with KeePass.
What are the specific symptoms of "not work"? What are you trying to do, and
what specific responses are you getting?
Up to version 2.53 I was using https://github.com/pfn/passifox/ but it got
last update 3 years ago and it does not work anymore (looks like some
changes in password storage issue).
For firefox I managed to switch to
https://github.com/smorks/keepasshttp-connector and it even installs in
Seamonkey 2.53 but does not work (no credentials suggestions or even toolbar
icon).
The links that you post are not stock KeePass -- those are plug-ins that read
KeePass data stores, passifox (last updated March 2017) and
keepasshttp-connector (last updated March 2018), both of which require
KeePassHttp. None of them are shown as available at either addons.mozilla.org
nor the Seamonkey archive at thunderbird.net.
I'm guessing that both projects were supported until the end of Firefox 52.9,
and are now abandoned. Since Seamonkey 52.3 is based on Firefox 60, there's
now a bunch of stuff in the Mozilla APIs that are no longer supported, and
there's a lot of both plug-ins and extensions that will no longer work on
newer versions -- and no way to fix them. Furthermore, because of the problems
with malware, I know that Firefox has become pretty hostile to plugins.
I have 2.59.3 (20190815 build) installed on a virtual machine along with a
stock 2.43 installation of KeePass, and everything working correctly,
especially the auto-type function.
If you want to be using anything more recent than 2.49.5, then you're going to
have to find a different approach to interacting with KeePass. I have no idea
whether extensions that run in Firefox after version 57 will work in Seamonkey
2.53, but I think you can pretty much forget about anything that interacts
through a plug-in.

You have your versions mixed up. 2.53 is basically based on 56 but with many
backports. Add-On compatibility is not so much a problem here. There might be
some breaking because of bookmark api changes and older js featurces removed
but overall they should be fine if they are not totally ancient. NPAPI plugins
other than Flash are no longer supported. Announces itself as 60 because many
websites now just use stupid user agent sniffing just based on numbers.
2.57 will be at full 60 level with all consequences. We might back out some
changes for add-on compatibility later but overall it will behave like
Thunderbird 60. It needs more web extensions compatibility. As of now uBlock
and NoScript e.g. do not work.
