Is there a way, either natively within Thunderbird or using a currently available extension, to right-click and Copy an attachment from one email and then paste it as an attachment in a new message?

@sfhowes Thank you for that, I downloaded and tried it, but when I copied a file to the clipboard and then tried to paste from clipboard, it said there was no file on the clipboard to attach. A quick perusal of the reviews for this extension show that it's not working for other users with v60 of TB.

I do know that I can drag and drop from one to another, but on a laptop with limited real estate, it's a tough sell. I'm trying to set this up for my aunt who was using Outlook previously and she enjoyed this right-click, copy and paste functionality from Outlook. I would love to find a way through TB as I think it's a superior product.
