I'm annoyed for having a beta thunderbird available for daily work
for months. It misbehaves. One example: IMAP mode, in a mime
encapsulated message body, the email's text on my PC is replaced by
a text saying "this attachment will be downloaded on demand" or about. 
No way to see (or download) the email's text again. I wish to get back
to Thunderbird 2 during beta testing, but there seems to be no
simple way.
