A couple of months ago I borked my thunderbird installation and ended up having to re-install and import my old emails. I ended up having to do it a few times before getting all of my old emails imported correctly. At least I thought I did. Not all but quite few emails are now showing blank Subject and Correspondent fields and the message body is displayed in HTML code. I tried the "repair folder" function and it has not effect. Please see attached screenshot
