Not familiar with Thunderbird anymore---it had too many problems with it
for me to be able to use it, and to my knowledge, none of them have ever
been fixed.

Is there a separate character encoding setting, or does it follow the
system's settings?  One way to check to be sure is to run the program
from within a terminal where "locale" shows the settings you want.  If
it isn't honoring your system's settings, that's a bug in the software.
