it doesn't render correctly though, unless you have the tidy extension
installed. This PHP extension cleans up and fixes broken HTML code, so
that the message displays fine (at least in the latest stable
version), once it is installed.
"Checked on my side the exact Horde IMP which is installed on our
server for your account is Horde (6.1.6)"
Does 6.1.6 make sense as an IMP version number?

I've asked my webmail host about the IMP version, and will get back to
you with that when they reply.
By the way, I've also raised this with the sender of that email
message. I think their META tag looks wrong. They generate this:
<META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-16">
...but I think maybe they should generate this instead:
<META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html" charset="utf-16">
If I QP-decode the message body and save it as a .html file, it
renders OK in my browser. That's the same browser I use for webmail.

things may have been fixed since then.
Please find out your exact IMP version, and please upload the raw message.

Some of my incoming email messages from a particular sender
(trademe.co.nz) get rendered OK in Mozilla Thunderbird but not in my
Horde 5.1.5 webmail (hosted by openhost.net.nz). I couldn't see any
tickets in your system for 'decoding' or 'quoted-printable', and the
tickets for 'render' looked unrelated. I'm unfamiliar with the
subcomponent structure of Horde, but am guessing that IMP is the queue
to use because '/imp/' occurs in the URL when I view the unrendered
email source.
The attached screen shot shows some of the email source, and the
garbled rendering. I wonder whether this comes from a bad interaction
between the charset=utf-16 attribute and the quoted-printable
decoding. A web search for 3Dutf-16 charset led to this page -
http://www.novell.com/documentation/datasynchronizer1/resources/datasync12_bugfixlist_mobility_upd3.html - which suggests that Novell may have had a similar
issue.
I hope this is useful feedback. Thanks for reading!
