stopping downloads

firestorm1

New Email
I'm using Thunderbird 31.5.0 on Windows XP Pro. I have a slow dial up internet connection and need to know how to stop an email from downloading completely after I see what it's about. Any graphically intensive email takes so long to completely download and I need to keep it open. IE8 used to have an option in the right click menu to stop loading the email and hold it where it was.
Can anyone advise me?:thanks:
