TB doesn't display the Subject header. It is a TB bug, weather you like
it or not.

This bug report is insufficient and NEEDINFO. ;) Seriously, this needs
an attachment at the very least with the headers.
And again, as I mentioned in a previous post -- yes, seeing these
headers would be nice. For this audience, too. Yes, that even enables
some of us to check other MUAs. So, well, you wouldn't need to report it
for those...

Now there's OSS involvement speaking. Sorry, Ted.
If you or someone else don't report it, it won't be fixed. Period.
Unless it accidentally gets fixed by an unrelated code change nearby.
