I've just installed Thunderbird and it's not displaying any incoming messages with html. Nor does it allow me to click any links in the incoming messages. When I click the links nothing happens.

Could this be because I've installed Enigmail as my encryption add on? If this is causing the problem, do I have other options in order to display html & be able to click on links within messages?

re: not displaying any incoming messages with html.

Do you have this setting ? 'View' > 'Message Body as ' > 'Original HTML'

BTW - you may prefer to see all the toolbars. They can be enabled - see image below.
