  1. Since last week, Gmail shows an "unsupported browser" warning with the last version of NMXP28. It happens with a clean profile. Overriding the useragent does not help. The official build of Pale Moon (33.7) is not affected. How can I help diagnose the problem?

    1. After a bit of trial and error, I have found that the problem is related to the user agent string. In Preferences, go to Advanced->General and set the compatibility mode to Firefox. It can be changed in about:config, too, by setting general.useragent.compatMode to 2. This should also fix other sites which behave differently on Pale Moon and New Moon (for example, Google Images).
