I have a lot of weird little issues with Jaws and Thunderbird.


One area is with messages I'm trying to forward. Most of the time, the 
body of the message seems blank, and I can't do anything with the header.


what I do instead is reply, tab to the To edit box, and change the name. 
Then I can cut the headers and do whatever else I need to do.
