Have you set the charset to use in Thunderbird? "charset UTF-8" in
gpg.conf doesn't affect emails, which you send, but I am still using
it in addition to Icedove charset.

Edit --> Preferences --> Display --> Advanced (on right of Default
font) --> Character encodings. Set both outgoing and incoming to UTF-8
and select "When possible, use the default character encoding in replies".

I am using Icedove (Debian version of Thunderbird) and as far as I can
know, my emails can be verified and they are written with UTF-8. Also
my ÄÖÅ should work (they are also Finnish chars, not only
Swedish/Danish/Czech).
