I could tell because my newsreader has an option to view the raw source
of a message, and your messages from Thunderbird had the following
Content-Type header:

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=3DUTF-8; format=3Dflowed

(note the "; format=3Dflowed" at the end)

I think Thunderbird's used Format=3DFlowed as its default when sending
for decades now, but it often goes unnoticed as Format=3DFlowed tries to
be as unobtrusive as possible (however the "space-stuffing" was, in
fact, intrusive here). I believe some mailing lists have had problems
with Thunderbird due to its use of Format=3DFlowed too.
