I notices that when I write a email and have changed the contents of the email a few times before I send out. It is ok for the sender to see it with a mail client. It also show normal when I received reply from sender and view it with Thunderbird. However, it show that when I received the reply email back and it show all the contents I changed with difference emails in Android mails. I think it must be something to do with Thunderbird because it do not happen with other mail client.

press Ctrl+U on the mail you sent. Are the changes in there?

Well, I think I may find the answer now. If the email write go to Drafts and changed a few time before I post it. This situation would happen. If the email do not go to drafts it would be ok. This would be nice to know how to stop email to go to drafts without I intend to do so!
