Yahoo mail will no longer work in Seamonkey browsers.

I spoofed mine by adding general.useragent.override;Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:58.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/58.0 in about:config.

Is that going to affect my getting Seamonkey updates?

Yes, Yahoo mail ("classic") does still work in Seamonkey. In my case

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:52.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/52.0 SeaMonkey/2.49.1

Which is the vanilla user agent. Look elsewhere for your problems.

I was concerned that the change would affect getting updates, but I learned that it does not affect updates.
