SeaMonkey was not sure just now.
I have just now clicked *MANY TIMES* on news.mozilla.org
followed by clicking on "Get Messages".

ALL resulted in an error message to effect that
mozilla.dev.accessibility did not appear to exist and did I
wish to unsubscribe. Each time I chose cancel. I have no
problem reading existing messages. [I do not locally save
any messages.]



I have cross posted to mozilla.support.seamonkey as that
appears normal at the moment.
My email address is valid, so one may respond there also.

Who should be notified of the problem?

I use

SeaMonkey 2.12
User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:15.0)
Gecko/20120826 Firefox/15.0 SeaMonkey/2.12
Build identifier: 20120826214753

on WinXP Pro SP3

I just used telnet to connect to the server and go to that group, and
it seems to be working fine.

$ telnet news.mozilla.org 119
Trying 216.196.97.169...
Connected to news.mozilla.org.
Escape character is '^]'.
200 news.mozilla.org
group mozilla.dev.accessibility
211 3139 2 3140 mozilla.dev.accessibility

After that I pulled some headers and then some full articles, without
any problems.

Since AFAICT the server is acting normal WRT that group, I'd pursue
this in the support group first. (Sorry, I can't help troubleshoot
SeaMonkey on this, but I hope others can.)

If it does become necessary to notify the server folks or to ask them
questions, the group for them is mozilla.dev.mozilla-org

Good luck!
