Is this good expected human readable info below? I've adjusted the terminal hostname and cursor colors here on this machine. How can I remove that easily in Thunderbird composed messages once pasted into reply?

That command is not displaying the human expected info. See:

Telcontar:~ # update-alternatives  --config default-displaymanager
There are 5 choices for the alternative default-displaymanager (providing /usr/lib/X11/displaymanagers/default-displaymanager).
