How to disable long text scrolling in emailed Adobe PDF form (when that feature is locked in Adobe)

I have created a form in Adobe Acrobat Pro with several form-fillable fields. All multi-line fields were created with the "long text scrolling" feature in Acrobat turned off, and all fields are locked.

However, when I email the form using Thunderbird and open it in Thunderbird (versus save and open in Adobe), all of the multi-line fields now allow text scrolling. As an example, I want only 5 lines of text to be entered in a particular box on the form, and Acrobat Pro and Reader perform correctly and limit the number of lines to 5. But when I email the form and open it in Thunderbird, I can enter unlimited lines of text.

As this form will be primarily emailed to recipients, I want to be sure the line limitation survives emailing. Is there a setting in Thunderbird I'm missing when sending, or opening the form?

Thanks

have you tried actually doing something with this acrobat file once you fill in the fields. My understanding is the file is essentially opened read only. So you fill in whatever and then loose the data when you close the tab.
