Thanks for your quick reply!

Hmmm - I wonder why, maybe Thunderbird has some issues? Here is the 
output when enabling debugging via these 3 lines above:

It seems that there's a wrong encoding involved. And I found out that 
the problem happens most often with english mails, whereas german mails 
(with umlauts) cannot be displayed - so that seems to be the reason.

However, I wonder why the mails are displayed without any problems when 
double-clicking on the email so that a new window pops up.

I found the following:
http://groups.google.com/group/mailing.www.horde-bugs/browse_thread/thread/a9591041b537423b
http://bugs.horde.org/ticket/9529

So perhaps this is a known issue and is fixed in a later Horde version?

Best Regards,
Hermann
