Emails sent returns a warning large size 33.9 MB attachement, even if there is no attachment.

When sending an email sporadically a warning message will appear about a large message, even if nothing is attached. Any advisement on what could be causing this problem?

Thanks! Dan

First thing to do is some cleanup in case Thunderbird is confused.

My standard cleanup instructions for Thunderbird:

1. Go through your Junk/Spam folder. Check to make sure no good e-mails are there, then empty the folder.

2. Thunderbird Menu: File: Empty Trash

3. Thunderbird Menu: File: Compact Folders

Do this for each "account" in Thunderbird, including Local Folders.

Quit Thunderbird, then start it again.

If it has been awhile, reboot the computer!
