I am using GMX myself and setting resistFingerprinting shows a message saying that the browser is old, because the apparent Firefox version 60 is older than the current one. The message appears at the top of the page. I can see that with TOR browser and Firefox 63.0.3 with enabled resistFingerprinting and assume that's the same message which t0f75 sees:

However, if it's the same message, GMX still works fine as long as the sites are allowed which are necessary for GMX once one is logged in. The main site (gmx.net, for example, depending on where you are) and ui-portal.de have to be allowed to see the message.
