Perhaps Thunderbird is more relevant? Thunderbird & was updated March
18th to fix these:
<http://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/thunderbird20.html#thunderbird2.0.0.21>

Thunderbird 2.x is a maintainer & new development efforts are being
focused on TB3.x:

https://wiki.mozilla.org/Thunderbird:Thunderbird3

You can install TB3 in parallel to TB2. Info is hear:

<http://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/seamonkey11.html#seamonkey1.1.15>

is, IMO, a better summary of all fixes. As an added note: SeaMonkey
1.1.1x is a maintainer version now, and only gets security fixes. For
those using SM, version 2.x is available now in alpha and beta, and can
be run in parallel with 1.1.x so you can test it on this newsgroup. SM
2.x has significantly improved filters & uses much of the same code as
TB3 - you can now filter newsgroups in the same was as email (by IP
address etc).
