Strange HTML incoming message

This has happened several times recently: a message shows up in my Inbox, supposedly from "x" person or organization...but the message body is not only in HTML, but it's from a DIFFERENT person or organization! I've tried restarting T'bird, but same thing happens...view is set to "Original HTML" as my default.

I won't clog up this message with the hundreds of lines of HTML that are in the message body, but here's the latest example: T'bird shows the message as coming from National Geographic, with the subject line of "Crippling disease often not diagnosed." However, the HTML indicates it's from OneDrive, with these first lines: 

                   Hi Joan,
                   


                   We noticed that you recently deleted a large number of files from your OneDrive.
                   


                   When files are deleted, they are moved to your OneDrive recycle bin. If you don't restore deleted files from the OneDrive recycle bin, they are permanently deleted after 30 days.
                   


                   If you want to restore these files, go to the <a alias="Inline:OneDriveRecycleBin" href="https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=857494" target="_blank" style="text-decoration: none; color: #0078d6;"><b semibold="" style="font-weight: normal;font-family: 'Segoe UI Semibold', 'Segoe UI', SUWSB, Arial, sans-serif;color: #0078d6">OneDrive recycle bin</a>, select what you want to restore, and click the Restore button.
                   


                   You can ignore this mail if you meant to get rid of these files.

Any idea what's going on???
