You're typing two spaces into Thunderbird which is sending an email with your text in it twice. Once as plain text and again as HTML for fancier formatting; these are the text/plain and text/html MIME parts you may see when looking at an email in its original format.
Thunderbird shouldn't be sending in HTML. Back in the mists of time, when I was using an Amiga and 14.4 kbs modem, the 'etiquette' was to NOT use HTML because it sends loads of unnecessary code. To this day, I always set my email client to send messages in Plain text only. In the Thunderbird general Settings, the Composition tab has Sending Format set to 'Only Plain Text'.
