This works for me in all versions of Thunderbird on Windows 7.
Can you try this in safe mode? (Menu Help - > Restart with add-ons disabled).
Also please answer the following questions:
- Is the message you reply to plain text or html?
- Do you reply in plain text or html?
- What does the message look line in your Sent folder?
- Can you please attach the file that is missing the first line to this bug?

I have not seen this issue recur since the first Thunderbird update after I reported this.  That update seemed to correct the problem.  I consider this issue resolved.  If you still wish to research this, I can probably find some of the files with some digging.  I'll let you decide whether to close the case in case you want to do the forensics.

I think we can let this bug rest, when it's fixed after updating.
