I am trying to save an email message to disk using command 'SaveAs...' from
mailnews client popup menu, which is shown with right-clicking mouse button.
Email is saved in email format (*.eml) only even in case if in dialog HTML type
has been selected.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select any email message from any folder's email message list;
2. Select and file type from standard windows file save dialog;
3. Write a new name or use previous file name in order to save a file;
4. Click save button.
Actual Results:  
MailNews client writes an email message to disk in email (*.eml) format only.

Expected Results:  
MailNews client should write an email message to disk in email (*.eml) format if
email type selected in save dialog, in html format if selected html type, etc.

Pavel Skrylev: this bug appears to have been fixed in ver. 1.4 -- using 
1.4b-0516, saving as HTML results in a properly formatted HTML file, saving as 
Text results in a reasonably formatted text file.

This may be a dupe of some other bug, but I'm marking this WFM.
