I guess that's the famous thunderbird bug (or is that actually a feature
now?).
I have no idea, but today I got fed up enough that I decided to work
around it. I placed an extension at
http://people.redhat.com/pbonzini/format-flawed.tar.gz -- you're welcome
to expand it in "~/.thunderbird/<profile name>/extensions" and test it.
Since the buggy code is in C++, it just disables format=flowed when
replying to non-format=flowed messages. It's ugly as hell, but it does
the job.
