Well, when using pine,it allows me to reply to an individual message in 
the digest, rather than having to cut-n-paste etc as on other digests.

So, this is a Thunderbird bug, that will affect you in many other 
situations. File a bug on Thunderbird (and at the same time,file one on 
better support for MIME digests, like the support pine ahs).

(Yes, this issue in Thunderbird bothers me too ... and it is *not* 
present, or a problem, in Mozilla-mail).
