It would also be good to be able to forward, reply to, or file the message.

It works for me. I see Subject, From, Date and To headers, nicely styled. I'm 
using a build that I pulled and built myself today.

(View Source does not work, however.)

Yes, this would help a lot with mailing list archives.

If we'll implement just the mentioned functionality, it shouldn't be too hard
with XUL and CSS2 (assuming, the fix I have in mind works). I could take this as
an enhancement bug.

However, all of the functionality (except "Move" of course) of a standalone msg
is potentially interesting. So, if we could load the msg in the soon-to-be
implemented standalone msg window (bug #10875), we'd have a decent solution and
would also fix this bug (and View Source). But I don't know, how hard this would
be to implement.

Sorry guys...I'll make the headers reappear eventually...the rest can be help 
wanted.

Actually, this was another bug that I already fixed. This works fine in the
current tip build of the browser.
