86130 - washingtonmutual.com - denies NS6 but not Mozilla

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: English US, defect)

Description

[Joseph Elwell]

I've been hating my current bank (wellsfargo) since the day I signed up. I no
longer want "Free Checking", I just want "Friendly Checking".

I was going to switch to Washington Mutual, because they seem "friendlier" and
have interest checking!

But their website doesn't allow Netscape 6 in!
I can use konqueror, but not Netscape 6.
I can use lynx, but not Netscape 6.
At least wellsfargo.com has started supporting netscape 6.

It's a good thing I didn't sign up for a bank account with washington mutual
before I found out.

Oh how I hate them,
Let me count the ways:
1) commercial build 2001061508 denied.
2) Mozilla build 2001061508 WORKSFORME
3) Bug 86130 INVALID
4) Washington Mutual HYPOCRITES

Why is this invalid. If there is a comm issue, that needs to be handled as 
well. Does this work in a release comm build such as 6.01?

I marked it invalid because this is not a mozilla issue. If you'd like to
evangelize, by all means. But, seeing how this worksforme in all the Mozilla
builds I tested then it's not a Mozilla bug.

As a note, I did file a bugscape bug for Netscape folk.

Invalid is Ok since they only are blocking NS6 at the moment. We can handle this
internally. Keep an eye on them though cause as soon as they figure out their
browser sniffing, Mozilla will be denied too.

And please try to be civil in these bugs. We actually refer sites to these bugs
and as the old saying goes...

"you can catch more flies with honey than vinegar".
