Changing that from false to true has solved similar problems when sending accented characters with yahoo/ymail/aol/verizon SMTP servers. Those SMTP servers claim they support 8BITMIME but actually just support UTF-8.
Thanks for posting this information! I'll give it a try soon as I ran into this with a friend who runs Thunderbird 60.9.0 on Windows 10.

Thanks!

EDIT: Ok, so I made the change and it worked perfectly! Thanks again!

Peace...
