(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, defect)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050915 Firefox/1.0.7
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050915 Firefox/1.0.7

If you save an email with an inline image (i.e. using multipart/related with a
CID), and then use File|Open Saved Message, the image is not displayed.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Send yourself an HTML email with an image (i.e. using Insert|Image)
2. After receiving the email, save it to a file
3. Use File|Open Saved Message to reopen the email

Actual Results:  
When reopening the email, the image does not display.  I think you get the ALT
text instead.

Expected Results:  
The image should be displayed.

what version of thunderbird are you using? If you're not using 1.5 beta2, could
you try this with 1.5 beta 2? thx.

I just tried it with 1.5 Beta 2, and it does not work.  I get a broken link, and
the image shows up as an attachment.
