This, in my opinion, is the major missing item in the Mail App.  It needs
a document well, like NewsGrazer, that allows you to drag-and-drop
the message being viewed.

Right now, the easiest way to do this is to Select-All on the message,
copy it to the pasteboard, and paste it in to a new Edit document
