 From RFC 3676 (Flowed text RFC; http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3676):

    Therefore, the use of [OpenPGP] with format=flowed messages is
    strongly discouraged. [OpenPGP-MIME] is recommended instead.

We only send messages as OpenPGP-MIME.  As per the RFC, there is  
absolutely nothing wrong with this and is, in fact, explicitly allowed.

Looks like Thunderbird is confusing OpenPGP w/ OpenPGP-MIME when  
dealing with these kind of messages.
