Empty quoted message when replying to decrypted message
OpenPGP addon for Mozilla Thunderbird

I've recently installed Enigmail 2.1.7 on TB 68 after not having used it for a while.
I've noticed that when I open an encrypted message originating in an attachment, and press "reply" - The quoted message part is empty (as though I was replying to an empty m message); but - if I "select all" on the text in the decrpyted message, then press reply - I get that full mesage's text qoted as I would expect.
(I should perhaps mention I have other extensions other than Enigmal: BiDi Mail UI, Removedupes (Alternate), DKIM Verifier, Filtaquilla, Lookout.
That's how Thunderbird behaves, and has nothing to do with Enigmail.
@pbrunschwig: So, is this a Thunderbird bug? If so, can you link to the bug page? Because with regular messages, that has never happened to me.
Well, this is also reproducible with unencrypted mails like the one attached (a regular, unencrypted and unsigned mail from the Enigmail mailing list). You can easily see that this is happens, even if you disable Enigmail.
I don't have a bug for it, and I think it's debateable if this is a bug or not. Thunderbird treats a specific part of the message as "body text", and everything else is technically an attchmend (maybe displayed inline)
