I got this message in Thunderbird, "This message could not be retrived properly. This message may be corrupted or received improperly. Please ask the sender to retransmit the message"

But the message came through fine both on my server and when the same email went from my server to Mac Mail, so what problem id Thunderbird having with this email?

Do you have an anti-virus/firewall program scanning your incoming mail ?

Suggest you access your anti-virus program and stop scanning incoming mail and see if the emails get downloaded.
