According to the Mozilla documentation, error 211 means "Installation
not started" (which is not very helpful, but all I could find). I could
imagine that you don't have the rights required to install Enigmail.
You'll need local Administrator rights for SeaMonkey 1.x to install
Enigmail. Also, make sure that the 1st start of SeaMonkey after Enigmail
is installed is done with local administrator rights.
