Instal PINE (preferably version 4.64, to reproduce this properly) on

your IMAP or POP server, so you can revert to using your previous email
application).
Then forward the message to yourself, from your existing email
application, so that you receive it in PINE, as I had done.
Then, try to copy the URL from PINE, and paste it to a browser window
URL text box
Then, IF you can do that, you tell us how you managed to do it.
Hi Bret,
I have gained access to an older PINE install (4.10).
I exported Jeff's email into an mbox file and read it in pine.
To do this I opened an xterm (note not gnome terminal or Kconsole)
ssh'd to the host with pine installed, viewed the email.
Selected the text with the mouse, and use the middle button to paste
that into firefox.
