This happens also in ubuntu 9.04
I compared the message code between the one generated by kmail and thunderbid. There is one header that differs. In kmail the header is:
Content-type: text/plain charset="us-ascii"
which leads to a correct formating
The header created by thunderbird is:
Content-type: text/plain charset="ISO-8859-15" format=flowed
Here all the newlines of the signature a are lost.
