Web-browser, advanced e-mail and newsgroup client, IRC chat client,
and HTML editing made simple -- all your Internet needs in one
application.

Based mostly on a port from James Wright <jamesw at bsdhosting.co.za> with
input from several - thanks! Tested on i386/amd64/sparc64/macppc.

Loading of external images has been turned off by default on
OpenBSD. To turn it back on goto Edit -> Preferences -> Mail &
Newsgroups -> Message Display and enable "Allow messsages to
load and display remote images and other content". However,
it is recommended that you leave it off to avoid unwanted
internet connections and possible future exploits against
Mail & News. 

To disable anti-aliasing (xft) set GDK_USE_XFT=0 in the environment.

Plugins

Seamonkey looks for plugins in ~/.mozilla/plugins,
!!PREFIX!!/lib/mozilla-plugins, and !!PREFIX!!/seamonkey/plugins.
The user environment variable MOZ_PLUGIN_PATH is not used on OpenBSD.

Using Java Applets

To make Applets work, you must symlink (not copy) the file
libjavaplugin_oji.so into one of the directories listed above.
This might be done like the following:

$ cd ~/.mozilla/plugins
$ ln -s !!PREFIX!!/jdk-1.5.0/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so .
$
