Firefox addons on seamonkey

Question

Many addons for firefox don't work on seamonkey. Is there any risk in overriding the security settings? Or is there perhaps a tool that allows for compatibility?

I like the idea of a calendar and mailclient in the same piece of software, but if I can't use the addons I use in firefox, I'm sticking with firefox.

Have you checked through the Seamonkey addons list?
Here is also a blog reference from PuppyLinux (which uses Seamonkey).

There are many addons for SeaMonkey, and many Firefox addons can also work in SeaMonkey. There is a site that has some Firefox addons modified for SeaMokey:

_{Seamonkey is great if you are already using PuppyLinux.}
