Hello Oliver Sturm,

I am curios, in all of my test here, it always have message header :

X-MS-TNEF-Correlator: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

while your sample message not.
This cause TB! can not interpretation well, and fail to decode.

---
I  remember  for  attachment *.att case long time ago, my friend noticed
that  this  happen  (specific  for  TB! only) if the message header only
contains :
Content-Type: text

instead of

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
