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.
