209236 - Can't reopen mail saved as text

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 193281

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[Ion Chalmers Freeman]

User-Agent:       Opera/7.10 (Windows NT 5.1; U)  [en]
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030507

I can save a message as text, but I can't find a way to reopen it in Mozilla and 
go back to editing it. When I've lost my IMAP connection but can still find my 
SMTP server, neither 'saving to Sent Mail' nor 'Saving to Drafts' works after 
I've sent a message. I'd like to be able to save the message locally, then put 
it in sent mail after my connection is restored.
I can save it, but I can't see how to turn it back into an editable mail 
message.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. compose an email
2. save it as text

Actual Results:  
Mail saved as text. No obvious way to get it back into the application.

Expected Results:  
Provided me with an 'open' command on the 'file' menu, whereby I could load the 
email back into an editing window.
