I had put this up on all the mozilla firefox forums, putting up again, cause it remains unresolved.

Dear Thunderbird,

I have been using Eudora for 20 plus years and migrated to Thunderbird after Mozilla took it over. After my donation, I have observed that the last update that you have done, has a bug.

I would always detach any attachments on my email and categorize them in my set directories for easy retrieval and I have these files since 1991. Off late when I detach a file it deletes it from the email, and saves it to my attach folder, desingated in the options menu, making my inbox file that I backup smaller and managable on a pen drive too. Now when I detach files, it deletes them from the email but the attach directory is always empty.

Please rectify this as it is causing a lot of files being lost.

This is a duplication of https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1536013 If you wish to add further information I suggest you continue the discussion in your original topic. Closing this. Please refrain from raising duplicate posts that waste folks time managing them. You posted on the 18 and received a reply. Personally I would not have offered you the link to report a bug. But that is never mind nothing will change with this topic and certainly not in the time frame of the two days between your posts.
