* Loading IMAP parts on demand: if this option is on, then mails
larger ca. 40 kB will only be downloaded partially by Thunderbird. If
such a mail is a PGP/MIME mail then Enigmail can't decrypt it because
it is incomplete.

* Flowed text and inline PGP are two incompatible standards. In other
words, if flowed text is allowed, then Thunderbird, just like any mail
transfer agent and the recipient mail client are free to change
whitespaces and line feeds. However, changing a single byte in a
signed mail breaks the signature.

* View message body as plain text and writing HTML mails go together.
Enigmail cannot decrypt or verify HTML messages if they are inline
signed or encrypted

* 8-bit encoding - this means UTF-8. It's the recommended character
set as defined by RFC 4880 (the OpenPGP standard). See section 6.2 for
details.
