Nothing happened.

Expected Results:  
Message source window should open.

Hej,

works fine here with current trunk version... Is the 'View Source' action in the View menu disabled for you when selecting a message?

Ciao,
Tobias

Tobias, thanks for your reply.

The 'View Source' action is enabled, but has no effect.

FF.

Hej,

works without problems here and I can't see from the code what should go wrong there. Can you try a more current version, please?

Ciao,
Tobias

Sorry for the (embarrasingly long) delay...
This is still present in KMail 2.0.95 on KDE 4.6.2.  Exactly as before.

When I turn on the message preview pane, viewing the message source works.  It stops working when I turn off the preview again.

The 'View Source' menu action (now under Message->View Source) is no longer present in the main window when the preview pane is disabled, so this bug is no longer relevant.
