It accepts Hebrew character input and pasting from the Unicode/XML Tanach.

for example.
I get question marks as well, with Mozilla which is the same under the hood as Thunderbird.
Your problem is that you sent out the message with "Western (ISO-8859-1)" encoding. To send Hebrew with Thunderbird, you need to select either "Unicode (UTF-8)" or one of the Hebrew encodings - probably from the View menu then under "Character Encodings", or you can make Unicode your default as I do.
Here is some Hebrew to test that:
בְּרֵאשִׁית
This should be readable with MS Outlook and Outlook Express (recent versions, but perhaps only on Windows) and several other mail clients, not only with Thunderbird and Mozilla.
