Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. "Select" a message containing 'X-Priority: 3'. Actual Results: The Priority column displays 'Normal'. Expected Results: The Priority column should be left blank. Same issue with { [Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win95; en-US; rv:1.3.1) Gecko/20030425] (with v1.3 profile, at least) } This is kind of opposite thinking of bug 187156.

I don't think the default is "normal". The default is "not set", or none. I can imagine there are times people would want to set the priority to "normal", just as an indication. (For the little use priorities have that is.) "Fixing" this bug would thus lead to information loss. What do you think, Serge?
The assumed default if X-Priority is not set explicitly is 3/normal. While we don't (and won't) set this ourself, we should show when incoming mail does set this (unnecessarily).
