As am I. Mike Easter is using:
User-Agent: Thunderbird 2.0.0.24 (X11/20100623)
to post this in this group. However:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=168420
[We need Format=Flowed Evangelization]

Yup, as said, that's a know bug. Found it, it seems it's bug 125928.
This has been fixed over 2 years ago, shortly after TB2 release, so
please try the Thunderbird 3 RC2. I just tried it and I don't see the
bug, so it seems fixed.

Perhaps Mike could/should instead post this on the
mozilla.support.thunderbird group instead?

Note: posting this with the following:
mailnews.display.disable_format_flowed_support;true
mailnews.send_plaintext_flowed;false

I'll respond to any followups with
mailnews.send_plaintext_flowed;true
