Public bug reported:

I received an email (MIME, multipart, UTF-8 text specified for both HTML
and Plain parts). When I click Forward Message then the encoding gets
broken.

It appears that the UTF-8 has been interpreted as Latin-1 (or at least
not UTF8) and 'converted' into UTF8, even though it already was, so I
see (what could be) double-encoded characters.

The mail was from Yahoo: X-Mailer: YahooMailWebService/0.8.140.532

The message displays fine. If I hit Reply, that's fine. If I start a new
message and copy-and-paste, that works properly. It appears to be just
the Forward button that's broken.

Both Forward and Shift-Forward exibit the same behaviour.

Title:
  Forwarding a message breaks character encoding

Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I received an email (MIME, multipart, UTF-8 text specified for both
  HTML and Plain parts). When I click Forward Message then the encoding
  gets broken.

  It appears that the UTF-8 has been interpreted as Latin-1 (or at least

  see (what could be) double-encoded characters.

  The mail was from Yahoo: X-Mailer: YahooMailWebService/0.8.140.532

  The message displays fine. If I hit Reply, that's fine. If I start a
  new message and copy-and-paste, that works properly. It appears to be
  just the Forward button that's broken.

  Both Forward and Shift-Forward exibit the same behaviour.
