Details

Thunderbird only handles vCard content sent with Content-Type: text/x-vcard. It
should also handle vCard data sent with Content-Type: text/directory;
profile=vCard, which is the  MIME type specified for vCards in RFC 2425.

Starting with Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger), vCards sent from the Mac OS's built-in
Address Book application through the built-in Mail application use
text/directory, so this is causing a minor interoperability problem with cards
sent from those applications to Thunderbird users.
