Well, I'm not the expert, especially at Chinese.  
I do remember in an older version of FreeBSD, to get it to work in firefox,
I would use
LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.UTF-8 firefox

from a terminal, and it would then work. I never figured out why (it worked
with other GTK apps such as libreoffice.  Hrrm, I don't think I tried in
Thunderbird.

Ah, also, in my .xinitrc (I boot into text mode then run startx I have,
above the line calling the window manager

export LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 

Do you have fcitx-gtk2 and fcitx-gtk3 installed?
I repeat, I'm not an expert on this, my skill is in googling and finding
out how others got it done, then just copying that and summarizing it. :)
