To be more specific, I think it had to do with links to attachments
since all other links can be adjusted to what you like via the resources.
I'm not sure what is the cleanest way to allow customization of
attachment links since they are controled by the mimefilters.

I think it is not a bug in Mozilla since <base href> can only occur
in the <head> element.  IE is probably doing a blind base switch each time
it sees the <base href> tag.  This is non-standard behavior, and in some
cases, could be considered a major problem (like cross-scripting
vulnerabilities with web-based email services).
