Title:
  Outgoing mail is always windows-1252 encoded by default

Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Thunderbird 45.8.0
  Ubuntu 16.04

  When composing or replying in Thunderbird, the default encoding is
  Western (Windows-1252) regardless of the setting of Edit ->
  Preferences -> Display -> Advanced -> Text Encoding.

  It doesn't matter that the setting for Outgoing Mail: is "Western
  (ISO-8859-1)" or "Western (Windows-1252)", either way the outgoing
  message is windows-1252 encoded.

  If the setting for Outgoing Mail: is "Unicode (UTF-8)", then the
  outgoing message is utf-8 encoded, so that works. It is only "Western
  (ISO-8859-1)" that doesn't work.
