Symptoms
The body of your messages shows as strange characters that replaces your normal ascii characters.
Solution
- Exit Thunderbird.
- Back up your "prefs.js" file.
- Open "prefs.js" in a text editor (e.g., Notepad) and look for this line:
user_pref("font.name.monospace.x-western", "CSD10");
- Note that "CSD10" may not be the name of the font in your "prefs.js" file.
- Remove this line and save "prefs.js" as text.
- Start Thunderbird and test it.
