Here is the usual situation:
1. Friend uses Exchange system with Outlook.
2. Outlook attach Accept-Language header based not on the actual  
language of the message but based on system locale or installed  
language pack
2. Accept-Header in this case is false, but he has no way of changing  
the value
3. When message is replied in Horde system it tries to parse  
Accept-Language header, which obviously contain false information.  
Accept-Language is not in this case the language that the message is  
written in, what sender system accepts or what sender prefers.
4. Horde show this Accept-Language information.

Is it problem in Outlook or Exchange? Possibly.
Is it a problem in Horde? Possibly. Because in this case it works  
differently from other mail clients that happily discard  
Accept-Language value or at least do not show it to user. User is not  
expecting to see that notification.

I've now locally removed that message from the compose templates.
