(I know nothing of Mail/News, but it looks like...)

WFM, 2.33b1, en-US, so maybe it is locale specific?
No still WFM with de.
Abonnements verwalten.

I tested with the feed from here, https://noscript.net/feed.
And Mehr uber Feeds erfahren loads https://support.mozilla.org/de/kb/nachrichten-feeds-und-blogs-abonnieren which I suppose is correct.

Strange, I will do some additional tests until weekend, try to find the roots of the problem I observe.

One special thing here is that I have subscribed approximately 70 feeds, and 1 of them might be damaged, I can not delete it.
With some further tests I will try to find out whether a damaged feed subscription might be the reason for the problem.

I tried with different (default) Seamonkey Profile and <https://telekomhilft.telekom.de/> (Many of my subscriptions are for "questions" of that site).
First subscription worked fine, and error message did not appear when I tried to manage that subscription. 
But I was not able to add more subscriptions, seccond subscription for an other "question" failed, no additional entry below "Mail & Newsgroups". Additional bug or same roots as reported bug or indication that my Seamonkey (or Profile) is damaged?
I will try to find a test

Might be related to an AddOn. After Restart of Mozilla in Protected Mode with inactive AddOns error message did not appear.

[Rainer Bielefeld]

But simply switching all Plugins and Extensions to "inactive" will not help, only Safe Mode (not "protected, I used wrong word) heals the problem.

Uninstall German SeaMonkey 2.33.B1 Build 20150223174142, reboot and install 2.32.1 healed the problem.

Comment 8

[Rainer Bielefeld]

And uninstall 3.32.1, reboot, install 2.33.B1 Build 20150223174142 brings back the problem. 
So I think it's a combination of some special circumstances with my installation and a change in Seeamonkey between 3.32.1 and 2.33 (bug?).
Any ideas how to get that reproducible?

Not a Seamonkey Bug, see Bug 1137600#c4
