I downloaded emails from IMAP account in the normal fashion and one email does not render correctly as initially placed in the inbox from the download process. My email web interface provides a function to download an EML file for a message. So I did that. Then I dragged and dropped the message from the Thunderbird inbox folder. The two files compare exactly except for five lines placed at the beginning added by Thunderbird. This proves Thunderbird downloaded the stream correctly.

The corrupt message when double-clicked and opened shows garbage in the subject field and attached images do not render because I do not display images from unknown email sources. When I clicked to display images they would not fetch and render.

When each file is dragged from the desktop and dropped into a folder they render correctly. Dragging the corrupt message to a different folder does not render correctly.

Because the two streams are the same (the EML file from Thunderbird and the EML file downloaded from the web interface), and because both EML files make valid, uncorrupted email when dropped into Thunderbird, the problem is the download process when header information is written to the database. Once database information is written the stream is never reassessed or corrected.

Will add more files. Possibly related to bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1872677
