Hello,
IMHO, Thunderbird should use UTF-8 encoding *by default*, on all operating systems.
Namely, in Windows version, in Tools -> Options -> Display -> Fonts:
- the Character encoding should be Unicode (UTF-8) both for incoming and outgoing mail;
- the "Apply the default character encoding to all incoming messages" should be cheked by default;
- the "Use the default character encoding in replies" should be checked by default.
Regards,
Razvan
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. In Windows version, check menu Tools -> Options -> Display -> Fonts
Actual Results:
The default encoding is Western.
Expected Results:
The default encoding should be UTF-8.

xref/dupe bug 224391. Unfortunately, webmail support for utf-8 messages is not very good.
