  The very first line is not a valid header line:

Sehr geehrter Herr Gerdau,

[advert snipped]
-------- schnapp -----

  If this was in the original mail, and not only inserted by the
webmail software, it really should cause an error in any eMail
program. 

  But some would simply say, that it is not a valid eMail-Message,
some others do crash. But a good program would never assume, that
date received from outside are always correct and contain no error. 

Yours,
