Comment 111 for bug 10883

Regarding Comment #1 (April 2002):
one bad thing with this workaround is that it doesn't apply to the keyboard shortcut Cmd+Shift+N, and isn't present in the menu next to New > Message.

this seems really counter-intuitive, and each single time i need to switch from text to HTML, although i *know* that there *is* a trick, i'm forced to turn to google and find the solution in some blog...

the one who fixes this gets a free beer from me! ;)
