I do a lot of back and forth emails with clients and have to set Thunderbird's "message body" setting to "plain text" or it takes forever to load up a message because it could have hundreds of links and be over 100k in size.

I also have "allow remote content in messages" turned off.

The problem is that I want to toggle html/show remote content if I'm reading a message that needs it without changing the global message body settings but can not find any option to do so. There is an option to toggle remote content if I have the message body set to either of the html options but it goes away when set to plain text (which makes sense of course.)

What I'd like to be able to do is click a button or something to force reload of the message with remote content regardless of the message body settings.

Is this possible?
