This did the trick. Funny the SOCKS Host was by default set in
Thunderbird to 127.0.0.1. I spoke with the whonix chat support and the
SOCKS Host should be (in the anon-whonix) set to 10.152.152.10, Port
9102. Now everything is working.

Why my default Thunderbird SOCKS Host setting was set to 127.0.0.1 I
don't know.
