Sorry for the long delay, I had to wait to get a customer report, now I

I don't understand. Did the customer forward the 'broken' message as an
attachment? If so, that doesn't help.
No, I directly logged in to their webmail, moved that message to a test
folder, and did what you wanted.
Also, I don't see how incorrect displaying of the email address relates
to the behavior you describe: incorrect display of an attachment.
Both errors only appear since we changed the mailserver from cyrus to
dbmail. Before that, there have been no such problems, and the former
server was in production for 5+ years. So at least there's some ...
incompatibility between Apple Mail and dbmail 3.0.2, but it happens
rather seldom. They are about 35 heavy mail users, and only sometimes is
a mail damaged. Customer has a 2nd PC at home (also Mac), and he said it
happens he can't read a mail at home but it works in the office... and
that's puzzling.

So I guess there's a problem between mail content and attachment beginning?
What makes you think so?
Because the mail client displays the whole mail content, while it should
recognize the end of mail text, and recognize the rest as an attachment
and display it correctly. Currently it shows the attachment inline,
which doesn't help too much if you want to read the PDF as a human ;-)
I'm sorry for the formatting - Thunderbird is new to me.
