Hello Thorsten,
Thank you for submitting this bug and reporting a problem with Thunderbird.
You made this bug report in 2014 and there have been several versions of Ubuntu
and Thunderbird since then.
Could you confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the
ticket?
If it is still a problem, are you still interested in finding a solution to
this bug?

Title:
broken charset/encoding autodetection for encrypted messages
Status in Mozilla Thunderbird:
New
Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Status in kdepim package in Debian:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Version: 1:31.0+build1-0ubuntu0.12.04.1
Hi,
this is a bug Mozilla™ Thunderbird and KDEPIM share:
When I send an Inline PGP encrypted message, whose body is using
UTF-8, to another user, the message is ASCII armoured (and thus 7bit).
The other user, running Thunderbird or Kontact, (or my own Kontact
instance in the “sent-mail” folder), gets the message and interprets
the post-decryption body as ISO-8859-1 (or Windows-1252, probably)
instead of UTF-8.
Manually switching the encoding to Unicode in the menu corrects this…
for this one message. (See
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/+bug/1108980 as
well.)
The problem here is that the human message encoding (everything within
the PGP armour) must be separated from the transport message encoding
(the RFC822 message in which the “-----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE”…“END PGP
MESSAGE-----” is transmitted) must be separated from each other, which
they aren’t.
Please fix this, it harms using those MUAs in an enterprise
environment.
