The known add-on external editor says it is compatible with Thunderbird 5. But the latest Thunderbird is version 31.1.0 already. Is it still usable? Or is there any other add-on that can enable editing emails in an external editor for Thunderbird?

One possibility is to install muttator (you may want to build a later version), and push Ctrl-i when composing to call the editor. The default editor is gvim, but you can change the default editor by add the following to ~/.muttatorrc (create one if the file does not exist):
set editor=your_editor
