| The default is the "raster" graphics engine, which works somewhat like

For X11 tunneling, yes it should be. X11 has significant support for
putting bulky stuff on the server (your local X11 display) and sending
tokens over the net to manipulate them.

Unless of course you want to use seamonkey as a mail reader over a remote
connection. It used to work quite well, but in recent years has sprouted
so much animations (not least that bloody "throbber" activity indicator)
that my partner reserves it for desperation when away from the home
server; it is close to unusable. (I use mutt:-)
