Hello Team,

I noticed that when sending reply emails via Thunderbird email application, Thunderbird is automatically adding characters in reply which are visible only after email is sent.

For example, I have seen below two characters being introduced on two separate occasion. It appears that these characters are replacement of what some spaces from original emails from sender.

1) �

2) ??

Attached is screenshot of the two emails from sent folder.

Please advise why this happens and how to fix it.

Thank you Parry
