User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130

When reading an HTML mail message in either the main window or the standalone
window, it appears that "title" attributes of html anchors are not respected.  
If presented with <td><a href="server/page.html" title="Some
title">Description</a></td> the normal behaviour would be a flyover box
containing the words "Some title".  This works in the browser, but if this same
code is contained in a mail message the title doesn't appear, although the rest
of the html code works fine (i.e. the table appears properly)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Mail yourself an html email with an anchor and title attribute.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
No flyover box

Expected Results:  
Should have had a flyover box.
