The problem still exists in 9.0.1 (Linux and Windows). Adresses with
german umlauts like ä,ö,ü are displayed incorrectly in the main screen.
In the message view

I attached a screenshot to show the issue in detail.

Title:
  Thunderbird splits email addresses with non-ascii characters and a
  comma in From: field

Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News:
  Fix Released
Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  When I receive mail where the sender is of the form "Lastname,
  Firstname" and the last name contains Finnish umlaut letters ä and ö,
  the sender is parsed into simply Lastname.

  Example:

  Järvinen, Jukka <j@xxxxx> is shown as:

  Message window: "Järvinen" and "Jukka <j@xxxxx>"
  Reply window: "Järvinen"
  Index: "Järvinen"
  Header: "From: =?iso-8859-1?Q?J=E4rvinen=2C_Jukka?= <j@xxxxx>"

  Affected version: 2.0.0.21 (20090409)

  This happens when the mail is sent from Exchange. The only apparent
  difference in the From header sent from Thunderdird is that ISO-8850-1
  is written in upper case.
