Thunderbird 60.9.1 in Mac: I cannot find Options under Tools to use this fix for multiple question marks replacing spaces:

"Go to the Configuration Editor (Tools, Options, Advanced, General, Config Editor). Scroll down to mail.strictly_mime

"Click on it and change it from "false" to true."

Thank you

NOTE: I modified this question to include a screenshot of the Tools menu, but I do not see it posted here.
