I have been researching this off and on for a while.  The closest I have
found to a way to get at messages from outside is that Thunderbird is
supposed to be able to open imap URLs if given them from the command
line.  However, at least for now, I have not figured out how to throw
one of those URLs at Thunderbird while it's running; at least on the
Mac, instead of trying to open a new window, it tries to start a whole
new process, and then refuses to proceed.

I suspect that this can only be solved by writing some sort of extension
that will open a socket for messages.  I'm afraid my understanding of
the Thunderbird object model and Mozilla extensions isnt' really up to
the task right now.

Best,
