Some email bodies shown as groups of ASCII characters separated by /
Some emails show a message body that's nothing but / separated groups of ASCII characters, as for example "FJ/OHS/U7R/R3A/NT4/R03/0QY/T1N/VRC/WJ3/J6E/YXK/I6K/WNA..." continued for several pages. These are generally (but I think not always) obvious spam - that one has subject "Try Semaglutide and join the millions of women losing weight fast." But not all obvious spam is shown that way.
Is this something that Thunderbird is doing, or is the gibberish the actual message? I've only bee using Thunderbird for a few months, and don't recall seeing anything like it with my previous email program (Opera). I'm using version 115.7.0 (64-bit) on OpenSUSE Linux.

Sometimes, messages appear corrupt because the index is flawed. You can check that by highlighting folder, rightclick, select properties and then click repair. That may fix it.
Thanks for the reply. It wasn't a fix, but it did give me an idea. Turns out it isn't a Thunderbird problem at all, since when I look at the same message on the mail provider's site, it has the same content. So it must be something happening further upstream. But where and why? A mystery...
thanks for feedback. I agree, looking at message online answers many issues that are thought to be thunerbird's but are not. :)
