Is there a way to preview Youtube videos in Mozilla Thunderbird when you receive a Youtube link via email?
More specifically, this is what I'm after (ordered by decreasing preference):
- see the video embedded directly in the email, as it happens in Gmail Labs' "Youtube preview"
- see a picture preview, as it happens when you embed a video in a web page before clicking on it
- finally, at the very least, show the title of the video somewhere, e.g. on mouse hover
Are there any extensions to do that?
(Solutions for either Thunderbird 2.0 or 3.0 are ok).

I haven't tried it, but you will probably need to enable JavaScript, which is somewhat of a security risk.
Also, as far as my understanding goes, this refers to embedded video, and not to simple links to video.
