   I've set up Mint on a laptop and am running Thunderbird 140.6.0esr,   
   which is the latest it's offered me.  I'm writing from a PC running   
   Thunderbird 146.0 on Windows 11 here. I have regular RSS feeds (largely   
   BBC) which, when articles are downloaded on the Windows machine,   
   displays the picture plus the whole news article in the right hand   
   panel. On the Mint laptop I only get the attached picture and no article   
   - I have to click the URL and call up the article online in Firefox.   
   I've just called up the settings panels for both machine's newsgroup   
   accounts side by side and I have exactly the same settings on both   
   machines. Is this a difference between the Linux and Windows 11   
   Thunderbird versions, or am I missing something?   
      
   The laptop is a desperately slow machine and takes an age to load/run   
   Firefox for each article I read in full  so I'd obviously like to have   
   the articles downloaded and shown within Thunderbird itself as on the   
   Windows machine. Any help will be much appreciated.
