I found a solution for windows :

"Formatting", "Tags", "Advanced" are tabs. Click them. You'll find the option you seek in the Advanced tab.

This "hidden tabs" issue is a common gotcha in Ubuntu.

You might try setting this preference (IIRC):

mail.preferences.inContent

(in the config editor) to true. It places the Options/Preferences dialogue into a tab, rather than a separate window, which isn't in itself particularly useful, but the accompanying reformatting of the options may help with the hidden tabs.

Thanks Zenos,

setting true on mail.preferences.inContent I can see the Advanced tab on Dispaly and set to open the new message on a new window.
