I haven't experienced this bug in current Ubuntu versions, so I think we can close the ticket.

The reason is that the italic typeface for the default font 'sans- serif' which is 'DejaVu Sans' is not being loaded from /usr/share/fonts/truetype/dejavu/ but instead searched in /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/. To load the font in Thunderbird one needs to install the ttf-dejavu-extra package which creates the directory /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/ containing links to the font files in /usr/share/fonts/truetype/dejavu/. To solve this the paths in Thunderbird should be updated. Otherwise the package ttf-dejavu-extra could be added as a dependency.
