I can't reproduce your problem. If I follow your steps I got exat the
same email with all the headers from the original account with a old sent
email.

The original email from the Sent folder of my GMail account:

There are only a few extra 'X-Mozilla-*' values added. Unfortunately you don't
write which headers you miss.
If I do sending a testemail again with the recent version of Thunderbird I got
the same outcome. Can you you give please some more information what you
probably making different?
