release.
The calendar component has been removed from Seamonkey in favour of Sunbird
(time/sunbird) and Lightning, see http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/
New features and fixes in this version:
General
* ChatZilla has been updated to a newer version (Bug 324439)
* When launching SeaMonkey, already-running instances are detected (Bug 122698)
Browser
* Spelling is checked when writing in textareas (Bug 302050 and bug 338318)
* A warning page is now shown before displaying about:config (Bug 339720)
* Tooltips from web pages can now be multiple lines, either due to automatic
text wrapping or explicit newlines added to the text value (Bug 356900)
* When you visit a secure site, the URL bar changes color to turns make
security status more visible (Bug 335113)
* When using keyword URLs, it is no longer necessary to type "keyword:" (typing
"keyword:" will no longer work). Just type the keyword name (Bug 337339)
* You can now drop URLs and bookmarks between existing tabs, which will result
in a new tab being created where you dropped the URL (Bug 324591)
* When hovering on a tab, the tooltip now displays a preview of the tab's
contents (Bug 315207)
* The search sidebar now behaves better (Bug 252802)
* The bookmarks menu and personal toolbar folder overflow menu now have context
menus (Bug 50504)
Mail & Newsgroups
* Message labelling has been superceded by tagging, which provides much more
than the original 5 labels and comes with new preferences (Bug 342560 and
others)
* The preferences for junk mail have been reorganized, and can now be set on a
per-account basis (Bug 335846)
* Improved phishing detection (Bug 326082 and others)
* New mail notification has been improved (Bug 327613, 305384, and others)
Address Book
* It is now possible to move or copy cards between address books. Cards can
only be copied to mailing lists, so you need to use ctrl key while dragging
to copy the card to the mailing list. When dragging cards between address
books, the default action is move, use ctrl to copy instead. (Bug 35837)
