But apparently do not understand the risks associated with html and
javascript in emails. You can of course choose to ignore the default
settings& SeaMonkey/about:config allows you to do that.

JavaScript was in html mail as far as back perhaps Netscape Navigator
3.0.1.a Gold. and the h=whole time not once did I experience a Problem
And I have viewed many a html or newsgroup post with JavaScript in it
and not once a problem. Yet recently there is all the fear of JavaScript.
Talk about something dangerous, talk about Active-X. Active-X is a lot
more Dangerous than JavaScript.
SeaMonkey doesn't run Active-X& so the reference isn't relevant here.
You've also been advocating html& javascript in email for as long as I
remember. I wonder how your spam rate is? Also keep in mind that you run
a Mac, so the issues of something spinning up on your Mac vs that of a
Windows user is perhaps different.
Just because you've kept the blinders on all these years doesn't mean
that html& javascript in emails is a good thing. Google will certainly
show you that.
I have very little spam. I have one email box have open just to catch
spam. and this one that I have been using for years I average about 4
to 5 pieces a day. SM Spam filtering works well Plus My computer is set
up to operate in stealth mode. If anyone else that has a Mac might be
able explain better what that is. Plus my ISP doesn't use static IP. and
uses DHCP. On the mailbox I keep as a spam Catcher the spam filtering I
have set up through my ISP's web-mail catches some and about once a week
I go into web mail and dump spam the have retained in junk folder I look
and to see whats what and delete about once a a week. I expect I have
less spam than most of the other here do. On the spam catcher account I
am considering the Possibility of instead of sending to a Junk folder
just to delete out right . But their is always the possibility some one
legit might post and might be caught in the filtering.
SM's filtering might be better if I dump the training data File I
haven't reset it in years.
