SeaMonkey 2.26, a complete Internet suite featuring a web browser, an email client, and even a full HTML editing solution, has been officially released and is now available for download.

SeaMonkey is a project built on Firefox, but the developers also implement in it a lot of their own features and options. Usually, the new branches of SeaMonkey also bring major changes and improvements.

The project borrows a number of features straight from Mozilla Firefox, but some options can be found only in SeaMonkey. For example, the delimiter for forwarded messages can now be configured, an option to not strip signatures on reply has been added to prevent top signatures from deleting the body, and an OK button has been added to the RSS Subscription dialog.

Also, Yahoo Mail is no longer trying to register a mailto protocol handler, the horizontal HTML5 audio/video volume control is now working fine with the Modern theme, the folder list in the message filter dialog is no longer empty, and Google has been removed as a content handler for feeds because Reader and iGoogle no longer exist.

I hope it works well on older computers. People really need some lightweight browsers these days.
