Thunderbird 115.6.1 corrupting emails
I have been successfully using Thunderbird for many years. In the last year or so I have been noticing that occasionally one of my sent emails gets corrupted such that the email body starts showing html text and the email subject header is changed to another email header that exists in the same folder but is unrelated to the email body. When I check the corrupted email from the Gmail web user interface, the email is not corrupted. I tried repairing the folder but to no avail.
I attach an example of a corrupted email below:

Try this: right-click the folder in the Folder Pane, Properties, Repair Folder, to rebuild the folder index.
As explained in the description of my problem I already tried that and it did not work
If repairing doesn't work, try rebuilding the folder, which means deleting the mbox and msf file for the folder in the profile.
