Apparently it is a heisenbug; I could neither reproduce it with Icedove 10.0.5 nor find anything about it in Bugzilla. It may have to do with settings, in particular with format=flowed. I have encountered this bug years ago, before I stopped using Thunderbird as newsreader, so I do not remember if I fixed it and, if yes, how.
