It is behaving very strange.  When I change security.tls.version.min to
0 then icedove works to read my forum.  I exit out of icedove.  I can
see the setting in prefs.js.  When I restart icedove and I go into
edit-> preferences->advanced->config, the value shows up as 1 instead of
0.  So, it looks like icedove will set the value and use it and write it
back to prefs.js.  But, on a restart of icedove, even if the value is 0
instead of 1 in prefs.js, icedove loads a 1 for the setting.

I am not on a network filesystem.  prefs.js is owned by me and the group
is me and the permissions are 644.

Aha, when I start in safe-mode, security.tls.version.min does show as 0
in the icedove config.  I guess I need to see what plugins I have and
try to figure out which one is causing the problem.
