User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:96.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/96.0

Steps to reproduce:

I have two email accounts in thunderbird. I take one email from the "sent" folder from the first account, press "forward", change the sender address into to the second account.
(Thunderbird 91.5.1)

Actual results:

Forwarding works (for the receiver). But the so forwarded emails additionally appear in the inbox-folder of the first email account. WHY? That is new.

Expected results:

The so forwarded emails should not appear in the inbox of the first email account. This worked fine until one of the last updates.

mbrehm, have you tried getting assisted in our Support forum?

Check account A, your settings for ≡ > Account Settings > Account A > Copies and Folders

Flags: needinfo?(mbrehm)
Summary: forwarding email from one account with changed email-adress (second accound) fails → Forwarding email from `Sent` folder of account A, after changing sender to account B, creates unexpected message copy in `Inbox` of account A

Anything in ≡ > Tools > Developer Tools > Error console (open console, clear, then do STR)?

Nothing in the Error console.
Settings in ...copies and folders are correct (both, in account A and B): Just one copy to "sent" folder.
I tried it one more time, same E-Mail, but can not reproduce the effect :-(

--> Maybe a temporary error of account A (gmx.net) or B (Alfahosting)?

Flags: needinfo?(mbrehm)

Sorry, vice versa: Account A is Alfahosting, account B is gmx.net
