"There was an error attaching fetch>UID>^[Gmail]^^Drafts>..."

Thunderbird Troubleshooting

Went to Drafts and clicked the Edit button at the top of an email. Clicked Send, and got this Send Message Error dialogue box:

"Sending of message failed. There was an error attaching fetch>UID>^[Gmail]^^Drafts>22573. Please check if you have access to the file."

Clicked OK, the only option. New dialogue box, Save Draft Error:

"Unable to save your message as draft. There was an error attaching fetch>UID>^[Gmail]^^Drafts>22573. Please check if you have access to the file."

Clicked OK, the only option. Clicked Send again - Send Message Error dialogue box again.

There was an image in the email, in the message from the other party.

Just in case it's related, I've recently had other problems - see https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1024916.
