the worst case scenario (and likely the actual case) is that 2.35 is

The new goal is to release it in early August.

The past month has been mired in fire-fighting bustages,
getting repacks and builds working (as of this writing,
trunk is busted) as well as the need to get the backend
buildbot code updated to reflect that we no longer depend
on CVS.

I apologize for the delay and thank everyone for your
patience.

Thanks for the update. At this point I'd rather wait until things get
sorted out than rush into an unstable situation.
FWIW I've been running Callek's contributed win32 2.35 build for a 
couple of weeks with no issues. But then, I have a pretty simple setup 
with few addons but do mix POP and Imap mail servers.

I was running that for a while with good luck as well. I've had good
luck with a 2.36 contrib build from here:
https://l10n.mozilla-community.org/~akalla/unofficial/seamonkey/nightly/
I won't be sad if 2.34 > 2.36 is skipped in favor of a 2.37 build to
be in parity with FF40.

I believe it was discussed in #amo and a fix for not just SeaMonkey but
for all the other Firefox forks (like Ice Weasel, Pale Moon, etc) is in
the works.

Re: Wrapping Header Lines

When a received SM email is displayed with All Headers, the header
lines don't wrap.  To see them all, you have to click on each line
and move the cursor to the right.  This is even more noticeable if
there are Attachments, as the header lines stop at the left-hand
edge of the Attachments box.

The lines wrap properly when the e-mail is printed.

How do I get the header lines to wrap when the e-mail is displayed?


You could try "View / Message _S_ource" (Ctrl+U) displaying the entire
message source, including headers.

This scroll-behavior is a lot better than previously, when text simply
was curtailed at the edge of the pane, and we could not scroll through
to see the text on the latter part of the line. At least now, you can
read it, without going to Message-Source.


Thank you - a nice, clear explanation!

I too played with 2.35 and 2.36 (54) without problems, but just in case there
may be problems that did not affect what I do, I'm back here on 2.33.1.

An apparently all my add-ons worked.  I manually changed some of them to work
with all versions of 2.*
