(Thunderbird :: General, defect)

Description

[Joe Nova]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.3) Gecko/20070309 Firefox/2.0.0.3
Build Identifier: 20070326

Thunderbird still has an issue with saved emails but now instead of getting the "c is not a registered protocol" when I open up a saved email, I now get thunderbird opening up another window of itself and the saved email does not open at all. I completely wiped thunderbird out of my PC, re-installed it again and tried opening up my saved emails and still the same issue comes up where I cannot open my saved emails using it. I've even made it my default email program and still having the same issue. Also, in the options window some of the options cannot be seen because the Window is improperly sized.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. safe mode
2. no extensions
3.
Actual Results:  
same issue

Expected Results:  
open the saved emails when thunderbird is the default email client

Should work if thunderbird is open when you dbl click the file.
