Thunderbird looks like this now... not sure what to do... I used mole and maybe the optimize option messed things up! It clears some font caches... No idea.

I have no idea what that software would do to Thunderbird. All I can offer is to reinstall thunderbird and see if the fonts are restored.

I opened it today and it's resolved? Maybe a reboot fixed it...
