I use Portable Thunderbird since 2015, but I only notice the following problems when it started to bother me at the end of 2019. When I do reply, I noticed that some of my previous texts have been inserted with a lot of special characters. I don’t know this is only happened to me or to other people. It has occurred in 3 different computers, a HP, a custom made and a Dell. Since most of the email I have manually deleting those special characters before I sending them out, the followings are a few examples from early and recent days that I didn’t change:
