A client emailed me their newsletter via Constant Contact and would like me to share it on social media for them. To get the link for our social media posts, I need to view the email in a browser. In other email programs like Gmail, you can usually find a clickable "view this email in a browser" option with those newsletters, but I can't find that option in Thunderbird.

Is there a way for me to view emails in a browser through my Thunderbird inbox? I know that I can save the email as HTML code and view it in a browser, but that approach doesn't allow Constant Contact to track newsletter views or allow new subscribers to sign up through the link.

view this email in a browser is very common in marketing emails. It is also something the sender is putting into their email. If it is missing, ask the sender why they do not include such a thing.

Just as an aside, gmail is already in a browser, yet they strip many HTML features from the email body so they can retain control of the mail and it's environment. They along with some other web mail providers are actually holding email back with their restrictive use of HTML.
