Is it possible that you are afflicted with bug #719413? See <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=719413>. This was fixed in Thunderbird 16.0. However, it might not have been fixed in SeaMonkey's mail-news until later, possibly even later than your SeaMonkey/2.17. See the following bug reports: #330868 at <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=330868> #765491 at <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765491> -- David E.
