Strange Symbols on "double-space"
I am experiencing that, whenever I input a double-space between sentences in my e-mails, the recipient is instead, seeing THIS: �
I also notice that the mail client seems to convert their incoming responses to me, such that I get the same symbols then displayed wherever THEY TOO have used double-spacing as well!
Example of displayed text from recent eMail exchange:
Haven’t heard yet from vendor will check. Not sure about your keyboard but a lot of little symbols rather than letters?

Following instructions from previous solution(s) don't seem to help - as the previous versions instructed "Set to force Mime_Encoding = True" no longer seems to exist in the latest version of Moz. Tried to set all (even advanced) options to force all formatting to: "Western ISO-8859-1" but to no avail. You can see that even the recipients reply, upon my forwarding (re-Test below) converts even their input double-spaces as well! - HELP!!
TIA! -Grant

The mail.strictly_mime preference is still present in TB 78. Set the default encoding to Unicode UTF-8 for outgoing mail.
