Sometimes i would like to open an eMail that contains HTML code in my browser (as a lot of eMail clients don't render it correctly). However, when i drop it on Mozilla, it is just rendered as plain text, unless i strip off the header. However, Internot Exploder will render the header as text, but then render the text following the <html> tag as a web page. Any chance that Mozilla could do this as well? Please see the attached file as an example.

*** Bug 202760 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
My example (http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=202760) comes from a totally different context (index.jsp for tomcat), so if you leave mine as duplicate, the summary probably should not just reference "messages", but "arbitrary non-html" files - be it text-plain or even xml or whatever MIME-type that is not rendered as HTML. Yet another related one --> http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=191000

MASS-CHANGE: This bug report is registered in the SeaMonkey product, but has been without a comment since the inception of the SeaMonkey project. This means that it was logged against the old Mozilla suite and we cannot determine that it's still valid for the current SeaMonkey suite. Because of this, we are setting it to an UNCONFIRMED state. If you can confirm that this report still applies to current SeaMonkey 2.x nightly builds, please set it back to the NEW state along with a comment on how you reproduced it on what Build ID, or if it's an enhancement request, why it's still worth implementing and in what way. If you can confirm that the report doesn't apply to current SeaMonkey 2.x nightly builds, please set it to the appropriate RESOLVED state (WORKSFORME, INVALID, WONTFIX, or similar). If no action happens within the next few months, we move this bug report to an EXPIRED state. Query tag for this change: mass-UNCONFIRM-20090614
