It's displayed in the body.

Only some messages.

The ellipsis are generated by emacs/vm.

I strippped down my .emacs to the bare minimum for run vm. The behaviour
persists. I have appended a screenshot of the displayed ellipsis and an
offending mail folder. Can anybody test if the error is repeatable on other
systems?
Thanks
