It's highly customizable.ĭrawbacks / flaws: The rendering engine fails the W3C's Acid2 test. Pluses: It has built in the functionality of many standalone programs and of Firefox/Thunderbird extensions. This feature is available in Firefox too, but you can only find it in the 'File' menu. This button allows you to switch easily between online and offline mode. The HTML editor interface is split into normal type of Web page editing, HTML tags editing, HTML source editing, and the preview of the Web page that you are working on.Īnother interesting feature is a small button that's available at the bottom of the navigator window, on the right side. The application also includes a tool that usually isn't available in this kind of applications. When you send an email for the first time, that address is automatically collected and placed into the address book manager. You can add/remove contacts, change the contact's details, etc. The application also has an address book manager. In reality, it's a Firefox extension, called Chatzilla, that is included in this package. You can also do that manually, but you need to know the settings required by the Gmail servers. However, it lacks the support for RSS feeds, but it has a build-in wizard that automatically sets up Gmail accounts via the POP 3 and the IMAP 4 protocols. The email engine is the same engine used by Thunderbird. The application has built-in email support. Just a few extensions are compatible with SeaMonkey, because Mozilla's attention is directed to Firefox and Thunderbird. The Acid2 test agrees.Įven if the application has the Firefox 2 engine, it doesn't have the same extensions support. In reality, Mozilla says that the SeaMonkey's browser functionality is powered by the same engine that is implemented in Firefox 2. This is a community project, which includes many features from standalone programs or Firefox extensions. 'SeaMonkey' is Mozilla's product, formerly called 'Mozilla Application Suite'.
