Thunderbird 2.x had this drag and drop feature for a message which created an .eml file by dragging it to the finder's desktop, but it seems to have failed in all the betas for 3.x

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Using Thunderbird 3.x, go to any folder showing a list of messages.
2. Try dragging the message to desktop for on-the-fly saving as .eml
3. Compare this to current Thunderbird 2.x behavior.
Actual Results:  
No file is saved, so OS integration fails.

Expected Results:  
Should save as filename.eml into dragged destiation folder.
