Logon to GMX does not work anymore

Hi, my Logon to GMX doesn't work anymore. It leads to an empty page similar to WEB.DE logon problem. Any kind of user agent modifying or redirection doesn't fix the problem. The poseidon trick mentioned in this forum does not work anymore. If any other information is needed please let me now. :coffee:

My system: Windows XP Professional, Pale Moon for Intel Atom & Windows XP 26.3.3

Please read through these two threads...
Focus on gmx.com: http://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=12518&&start=80
and
Focus on web.de: http://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=12507

GMX (and its sister companies web.de, mail.com) can be accessed with Pale Moon 27 (the alpha) and with various mainstream browsers. They cannot be accessed with versions of Pale Moon below 27. Since PM 27 does not support Win XP, that means using either an alternative browser or a different operating system.

FWIW I was able to access a greatly diminished version of GMX by turning off stylesheets (on Win 7):
Menubar -> View -> Page Style -> No Style

This produced a page with:
"If you’re using a screen reader, we recommend to use our barrier-free inbox"
and a link to a no-CSS version of the inbox.

Once in, switching back to Basic Page Style "upgraded" me to a mobile version of GMX.
