@ulfgebhardt, thank you for your report! The raw action should be removed, as the show source action provides all the necessary data and offers additional functionalities, such as Download and Copy to Clipboard.

I like the raw method way more then the show source - thats your choice in the end, but the raw thing is very useful

Assume you have an email like this and you are unsure if its legit or whatever is wrong with it and you want to investigate

You can just switch to raw mode and see whats happening - inline & fast - no need to switch tabs, no further hustle (also notice the nice clean interface with very little colors) - once your done you can switch back to normal and keep reading.

In terms of usability the proposed solution is a regression.

Open Email -> Raw -> Normal
Open Email -> Show Source -> Switch Tab -> Close Tab

The same workflow applies to images - see #1367 - with inline images you don't need to download them and fiddle them out of the downloads folder, but just can look at them - no hustle

@mercihabam commented on GitHub (Nov 22, 2024):

The reasoning here is that the page used for opening a message functions as a reading board, not a debugging window. Most users don’t even know what "raw" refers to in the context of emails, so it doesn’t make sense to keep it within the message template frame. Additionally, opening the source in a new tab, where it occupies the entire screen, makes it easier for users to focus on the content.
