there's half a precedent, but i get to file a bug later for the other half. Anyway, subscribe to the washington post rss feeds http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/metro/rssheadlines.xml Then select an article, e.g.: Message-Id: <http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A2814-2004Nov21.html?nav=rss_metro@localhost.localdomain> From: <Tim Craig> Subject: Waiting Lists for Montgomery Aid Grow Content-Base: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A2814-2004Nov21.html?nav=rss_metro [Actual Results:] The message is layed out in the message pane with a collapsed header: Subject: Waiting Lists for Montgomery Aid Grow From: <Tim Craig> But, Tim Craig didn't send a mail to me, or really anyone else, Tim Craig is the author of the article, and that's really what the item should say (tested w/ Thunderbird trunk nightlies for winXP and macosx) Expected Results Subject: Waiting Lists for Montgomery Aid Grow Author: <Tim Craig>
