User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; en-US; rv:1.9.2) Gecko/20100115 Firefox/3.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.1.7) Gecko/20100111 Thunderbird/3.0.1

In the headers pane, below the toolbar buttons, the sent/received date/time is shown. You can select it and copy it from the Edit menu or by pressing Ctrl+C but there's no context menu. The subject has a context menu, and date/time should too.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a message in Thunderbird
2. Select the date in the headers pane
3. Right click
Actual Results:  
Nothing

Expected Results:  
A context menu similar to the one for "Subject" should appear with the single option "Copy".
I can't even copy it !

Since bug 521003 is a Lightning bug that affects ctrl+c, I'm reopening this bug.

Ctrl-c/cmd-c works fine for me (not using Lightning), but when selecting the date and then right-clicking on it, there are no context menu.

what I get is "customize", but that might be because of an addon I run.
but I agree, there is no copy.

there is also no tooltip

Ever confirmed: true
It can be copied with the mouse (in Linux).
I'll see if the context menu from Subject could be reused.
Severity: minor → S4
