Steps to reproduce:

I received two messages using a very slow Internet connection. I looked at the first one in the inbox preview window, and then clicked on the second message.

Actual results:

The second message contained numerous images that had to be downloaded to the preview window. With the slow Internet connection, it took about a minute for the message to load. During that time, the header information was that of the first message, not the message that was partially displayed while the images downloaded. Thus, the headers were from one message while the body was from another.

Expected results:

When a message is displayed in the preview window, the header fields should be displayed first, and then the body should be displayed. Therefore, if displaying the body of the message is slow, the header fields are still accurate.

I'm pretty sure this is a duplicate of bug 1851871. A slow loading external link will cause the same delay showing the headers as a large attachment loading over a slow internet connection.
