Steps to reproduce:

I need to open some MSG files (CDFV2 Microsoft Outlook Message) in thunderbird. Following the KB:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1257035

Actual results:

i've renamed it to .eml and double click on it, leading to a message where headers (to/from/subject) get correctly opened, but message body are blank, anche there's no attachments.

Expected results:

Messages have to be opened correctly, with body and attachments.

I've tried some online and offline converters from MSG format to RFC822 format, and after converting it TB open correctly the message.
