I am using Thunderbird 78.2.1 on Windows7. A strange thing began happening: some e-mails are displayed with wrong recipient in the Sent folder and only there. The subject, time and date of the message are shown correctly (screenshot 1). After opening the message in a new tab, the recipient is correct (screenshot 2).

I checked if the problems occurs locally or is it an IMAP failure - after logging to my e-mail account via browser, the mails have a correct recipient (screenshot 3).

Any ideas on how to fix it?
