Did you try in troubleshoot mode?

Comment 2

[bernd_hauschild]

Yes, I did.
Unfortunately it happens only sometimes so In cannot reproduce it.
Now suddenly in troubleshoot mode I find very old (2013) eMails in various flavours: correct text, with headlines and or pure text and sometimes the same eMail 10 times repeated in the same various flavours.
I think there is an issue with compacting the INBOX and deleting eMails.

In other words, try doing properties > repair on one or more folders.
