There is currently a quirk when sending text/plain, format=flowed messages: It works great when sending Western text. However, many Asian languages do not contain spaces. Thunderbird, when creating format=flowed messages, inserts a soft line break (a space-newline sequence). The resulting flowed text then has a spurious space, because format=flowed deltes the newline form the soft line break, but not the extra space. The cure for this would be to send format=flowed, delsp=yes text, so that Thunderbird removes the extra space.  Thunderbird already handles format=flowed, delsp=yes text correctly for incoming mail, but it seems that Thunderbird cannot generate such messages. Details are in RFC 3676.
