Public bug reported:

Some RSS feeds evaluate the "Accept-Language" header of the request to
deliver the content in the correct language.

Unfortunately my German Thunderbird delivers the content in English.
I've tested the RSS-URL in Firefox and the content was German. I changed
the "Accept-Language" header with Tamper Data in Firefox to English and
the content switched to English.

I don't know a tool like Tamper Data for Thunderbird. So I can't check
the "Accept-Language" header directly. I also don't see a way to
configure this in Thunderbird.

This problem appears circa one year ago (not sure). So it worked in the
past.
