[Bug 1045852] [NEW] HTML mails replied with Israeli content are sent out with incorrect justification

[m1fcj]

Public bug reported:

Mail arrives in English with some Hebrew (or Israeli originated but in
English) embedded in the mail. I write a reply and Thunderbird creates a
multi-part mail with text and HTML parts.

Outlook uses the HTML part to display the message and all of the reply I
send out is sent  right-justified. Message source contains the font
definitions as text-align:right as below, this is the only thing I can
find as -right-justified-. What I quote usually comes out as normal,
left-justified. Only mails which involves people from Israel, not all
messages contain Hebrew characters but definitely was sent from Israel.

p.MsoListParagraph, li.MsoListParagraph, div.MsoListParagraph
	{mso-style-priority:34;
	margin-top:0cm;
	margin-right:36.0pt;
	margin-bottom:0cm;
	margin-left:0cm;
	margin-bottom:.0001pt;
	text-align:right;
	direction:rtl;
	unicode-bidi:embed;
	font-size:11.0pt;
	font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";}

Even if I select all mail and click on the left-justify mail, the output
comes as right justified. Thunderbirds displays them correctly.
