Which of next cases? Or different/new case?

> Header is ok. Display broken

Header is never OK. Raw binary of non 7bits-us-ascii character is placed in From: header without encoding.
Because Content-Type: header is not provided by bug opener, it's impossible to know whether DUP of Bug 468351 or not from provided mail data. However, because bug opener says "it works in TB 2.x", I think DUP of Bug 468351. Closing as DUP of Bug 468351.
Re-open please, if it'll be found DUPing is wrong.
