How can avoid message to include attachment in every message to send (new ver. 31-3-0)

Today I updated the Thunderbird to ver 31.3.0 and since then every time I send a message I get the advice asking if I forgot to include an attachment, despite I don't use that word in the message subject or body. In the previous version only got that question if I include the word in the text. How can change that?

Sounds like it works for you so that is it. I was not even aware there was an aggressive setting.

as there have been no explicit changes, check that the settings are still correct.

Tools menu (ALt+T) >Options>Advanced>Config Editor Filter on mail.compose.attachment_reminder_keywords and make sure the list looks right.

The list in mail.compose.attachment_reminder_keywords look fine (includes file extensions plausible for attachment). I instead changed the mail.compose.attachment_reminder_aggressive from true to false, now seems to work normally when sending email, that was it?
