It appears you need to disable format=flowed in your email client

You may disable format=flawed by including the two lines below in a file named
user.js in your Thunderbird profile directory

user_pref("mailnews.display.disable_format_flowed_support", true);
user_pref("mailnews.send_plaintext_flowed", false);

Or you may use the Config Editor under Thunderbird's Advanced preferences tab.
