→RFC822 Attachments and .EML files
An attached message can be opened in its own message window; however, doing so puts an '''error in the JavaScript console''' ([https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=231282 bug 231282]). All attachments of the "parent" message (including the forwarded message itself) are shown in that window's attachment panel ([https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=203570 bug 203570]). Obversely, if the attached message itself has attachments, those are shown in the attachment panel of its "parent" message ([https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35587 bug 35587]).
<span style="text-decoration:line-through;">A .EML file can be opened in its own message window (via the File|Open menu). That window does not display with a normal envelope panel, but instead is rendered as the Mozilla browser renders a .EML file ([https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=241212 bug 241212]). However, it is not possible to open the .EML file via a command line ([https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=242959 bug 242959]).</span><br><span style="background-color:lime;">These two bugs have been fixed in time for TB 1.5. Yay!</span>
For both the opened attachment and the opened .EML file:
* Display of the message's own attachments are not right ([https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=174692 bug 174692] and [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=206278 bug 206278]).
* It should be possible to file (import) the attachment or the .EML file directly into a mail folder ([https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11013 bug 11013] / [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=226877 bug 226877], [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=204612 bug 204612]). In fact, if you try to "file" one of these attachments or files by opening it into its own message window and using the <tt> Message | Copy To | ''folder'' </tt> menu, '''the program gets into an unstable state''' that prevents normal message movement and other actions ([https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=259522 bug 259522]).
