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.
