Which encoding does the message use? Since Wikipedia copied-text doesn't contain any private information, you could easily attach the message here ("Attach File"). Save/drag it to a folder or the desktop as an .eml file and attach that file. Maybe edit the file with a text editor to obfuscate your e-mail address and name.

I've tried and a UTF-8-encoded message looks fine when opened via the notification.

Attachment: eml

another message, I've removed the part which seems to me private (some hashsums or smth).

Here is the screenshot that shows that encoding is recognized as utf8, but is not rendered. If i switch tab to main and then back again - I get the correct rendering

I've forgot to mention, I use GNotifier on both Linux and Windows, cause they support native notifications. Thunderbord notification system opens messages in the main window, but has this bug too. E.g I've forwarded message to myself and in the viewer there was eml opened as a plain text

Yes, then it's a well-known timing problem.
