Lose or damage received the content of the e-mail, can see the fault once then apparent on refresh. worm 38.4 on 64-bit Windows8.1 / thank you

Thunderbird worm 38.4/8.1 windows 64 bit
Emails in the Inbox display content on the first reception. During subsequent attempts to display the message content can be completely empty or the contents of another adjacent email in the list. This seems to have started at the time that Norton detected and quarantined a couple of emails with identified the virus attached.
After you run the full system antivirus scan I backed the content of the 789abc987.default of profile to backup taken yesterday. Now new emails coming to see the same problem, so that up to this older email display correctly.

Unfortunately it doesn't seem wise to disable antivirus because in business, even if you wait for an attachment and you know the source, the technical capabilities of the source is not always known.

I suggest to disable antivirus. Indeed, it would be a bad choice.
The point is not to analyze the attachments so that they are still part of the e-mail message.

Some form of holding directory which allow scanning prior to arrival in the mail app would be nice

I don't know what you want to achieve by doing this. Yet once, any malware eventually joined an e-mail won't hurt as long as you do not deliberately open or run the attachment.

Save an attachment to disk and then let it scan by anti-virus would be a good strategy.
