Since is not specified I've tried to view your message without plugins, with
litehtml plugin and with dillo plugin. Didn't find any problem viewing the
message in the three cases, so I guess is something particular on your
configuration or machine. To narrow a bit the problem, which other plugins
have you loaded? Does removing any of them (try one at a time) improve the
situation?

Also, since it's reproducible in your machine, and before experimenting with
the plugin list, can you run claws-mail with --debug flag in a terminal and
see if something interesting is printed?

thanks in advance!
