True, but Thunderbird still doesn't allow offline header inspection.
All I get is a message window with this text in it:

"The body of this message has not been downloaded from the server for
reading offline. To read this message, you must reconnect to the
network, choose Offline from the File menu and then uncheck Work
Offline. In the future, you can select which messages or folders to read
offline. To do this, choose Offline from the file menu and then select
Synchronize. You can adjust the Disk Space preference to prevent the
downloading of large messages."

There is no "other actions -> view source" link for the header, like
there is for an email or for a downloaded news message.

Still wishing.
