"Show HTML" button no longer "temporarily display text or HTML for this message". Instead, it changes the setting in"view", "message body as", to "Origional HTML. So now I have to go change that setting back to plain test every time I choose to view an email as HTML for a moment.

It seems that the choice of "compose in text only" is gone from the settings pages also.

Not familiar with the Show HTML button. There are add-ons for TB 91 that do something like this:

Thank you for the quick response. I already had allow-temp-HTML installed, but from so long ago I had forgotten it. I went to add-ons, turned it off and on, and it is now working as before.
