I know I'm way behind in the mail, but Ron asked a very good question:

I think I have a part of the answer now, even though I was totally lost
when someone else reported that they had lost the regular mail buttons
on one of their installations.

Apparently InSight has a decision tree in it that looks for certain
things at certain levels when it comes to handling attachments to mail
in the inbox.  

It's the attachments which always have the fewer buttons and the 
"back to original message" choice.

And attachments are always split off the original and processed 
separately in the TEMP directory.

So, somehow or other, when the TEMP directory isn't available the
message itself [rather than an attachment] is at the bottom of 
"the totem pole" and thus it is treated as if it were, instead of main
message, an attachment.

How could that be?  Don't ask me!  

I just calls them like I sees them and I don't have the source code 
even if I felt competent to dig through it.
