Can't use 'send to e-mail recipient' after latest update

Busby

Previously, when I had a file to send as an attachment, I could right click it and select 'send to e-mail recipient', but this no longer works.

I can still sent the attachment if I create a new e-mail in Thunderbird, then select the paperclip and select attachment, but this no longer works the other way.

Can anyone help please?

Many thanks for your answer..

I have Thunderbird running on a Windows 2003 Server and the options you describe aren't shown I'm afraid..

Do you have any further suggestions please, bearing in mind there have been no changes in the server software and everything was OK until the last update of Firebird.

Hi,

I'm sorry but this isn't the answer as I don't want Thunderbird to open when I click a file, I want it to open a new message when I click 'send it to'

I should have mentioned that a lot of people are having the same problem with this issue on various Windows platforms and a bug in Thunderbird has been reported.

There is a workaround in that instead of selecting 'send to' you can select 'open with' then chosing Thunderbird.

Nice, my friend. Works like a charm! Thanks.
