There is a preference that allows you to use the middle mouse button to click on a 
link and have it open in a tab.  Not sure if that works with mail, though...

I've got two other little problems with tabs (0.9.7 milestone build):

1) Entering a URL in the entry field and pressing Enter loads it in a new tab, 
rather than the current one.  According to the prefs, that should only happen with 
Ctrl+Enter.  I think others have mentioned this - maybe it is an XP bug?

2) Sometimes I will open a bunch of links into new tabs, and one of them will show 
as (Untitled) and never load anything.  I'm never sure what link I might be missing 
- but I right click in the browser area with that tab active and get a menu that 
includes "Reload frame" rather than "Reload."  When I select "Reload frame," 
*all* tabs are wiped out, and I have just an empty browser window, with no 
Back/Forward history.  Not very nice... :(
