Title:
  Long line of kisses locks up processor in Thunderbird

Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  To replicate, send an email to Thunderbird client containing a line of 40,000 'x' characters, from a client that does not split the lines.  In thunderbird attempt to reply to this email and it locks the processor at 100% for several minutes.  I may be necessary to start typing into the reply to trigger the effect.
  I have not tested to determine whether the fact that they are kisses embarrasses Thunderbird so that it gets all in a tizzy, or whether any long line would achieve the same effect.

  Further information:
  The problem is only seen when replying in text mode, reply in html format is ok.
