Is View Source for mail messages part of this bug, or should I file a new one?
seperate bug please
not sure who to assign it to... rhp maybe?
*** Bug 27904 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
I take it this also covers the 2-pane window, since that bug was marked a dup of
this one?

It looks like the backend for this is done: I can open an attachment with MIME
type message/rfc822, e.g.,

http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/showattachment.cgi?attach_id=6062

in a browser window.  Isn't that all there is to this bug? The front end (double
click opens in new window) is bug 28239.
no there's more to it. We want to display messenger-specific chrome on such
messages so that you can do stuff like forward the message, etc. Also, if the
message came from a mail store like mailbox: imap:, or news:, we want to be able
to delete/cancel the message, move it somehwere, etc.

i reiterate that this is pretty serious dogfood for me, for whatever it's worth.
this is a high priority.  marking M16 because I don't know if I can finish it in
time for M15.  If you have other high priorities, we have a thread in the
mail-news newsgroup asking for opinions on this.

Sol, Scott had a great idea.  Let's just open up a normal mail window but move
all the splitters to the borders of the window.  This gives the standalone
appearance and saves a lot of work.  In addition, we get the new feature that
you can use the splitters for navigation :-)

Added 2 day estimate based on this implementation.  Please update the estimate
if the plan changes.

updating estimate to 1 week.  Scott asked some representative users and
discovered that the main feature of standalone is that it must come up quickly.
He's working on a plan to make that happen.

bulk move to M16 per selmer.
this is in.  You have to double click to open it up.  There are various things 
not working in that window and we should file individual bugs to track those, 
but the actual feature is there and able to display a message in a separate 
window.
