Editing Mail Source

[Chuck Anderson]

Okay, maybe I asked for too much info in my first post ... I'll try
these things one at a time.

I *might* upgrade to Thunderbird 2.0, but first I need to know if I will
still have some required functionality.

Can I edit message sources with Thunderbird 2, either natively or with
an extension?

Depend on what you have meant by 'message sources' . If you mean message
body ( not header ) then you can do it by selecting a message and goto
Message > Edit as New .

There is an extension for "Thunderbird: 0.5 – 1.0+" to modify message
header "https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/875"

I do mean the source, including the headers, and I am referring to the
capabilities of the extension you mentioned, but that extension is not
compatible with TBird2.

See

"http://kb.mozillazine.org/Extensions.checkCompatibility"

Please note these tricks can only enable that extension but that
extension might not work properly .
