Hi Team,

Regarding replying previous email, I have tried several time to attach files or photos, but the app will be closed automatically. Do I need to do any settings for it?

However, for creating new email, there is no problem for attaching files.

Best regards, Tomas

I had received an important email that had 6 attachments. I was able to open them yesterday, but today the link to them at the bottom of the email is missing, so there is no trace of the attachments. Is there any way to recover them? I tried clicking on the inbox folder/ properties & then repair folder, but it didn't help.Thanks

Hello, in my version of Thunderbird (140.11.1esr (64-bit)) on Windows, attachments appear at the bottom of the message. However, I would like the attachment bar to appear at the top of the email: how can I do this?

Kind regards, Inès

I have a client who has been using Thunderbird for years - in the last couple of weeks when doing his normal scan to email he is suddenly getting this error message, after filling in the email details and clicking send

"Sending of the message failed - there was an error attaching xyz.PDF. Please check that you have access to the file"

Process is... 1. do a Scan to Email via the Brother printer console panel 2. Scan completes and opens the TB new email message - File saves into the default folder \pictures\cc4\email 3. Fill in the recipient, subject and message body 4. Click send message in TB 5. Error above is presented

I can open the the attachment within Thunderbird to check it and it opens just fine - the scanned file is actually there... But click the send button and that error is presented.

I can fix it by removing the attachment and reattaching manually from the email folder where scan is saved.

When I try it myself (remote support), either via the brother CC4 app or getting client to trigger the scan to email, it often works, but invariably he calls back after his next scan to email and it is broken again...

Scans were saving to a Onedrive folder originally, moved the save location back to the standard user/pictures/cc4 folder assuming Onedrive may have been interfering, but it is still behaving the same.

Anyone have any clues what might be going on here? The brother software seems to be doing what it is supposed to. I have reinstalled both the Brother software and Thunderbird with no change... Windows updates maybe?

In the interim I have him doing scan to file and attaching manually, but would be nice to get this sorted for him...

its an Acer laptop running Windows 11 pro 25H2, TB version was 150.0.2 originally but still doing the same on the latest 151.0 that I installed two days ago

Thanks for reading... any help appreciated

The attachment icon is missing from the message display pane in incoming emails in Thunderbird. Before it was always displayed at the bottom of the window. I have 'Display Attachments Inline' checked and I also repaired the Inbox folder but still no icon visible. I am using the latest version of Mozilla Thunderbird 151.0.

Does Thunderbird use an internal PDF print driver? I can't print PDF attachments in color from an email. I've checked my print settings but Thunderbird only prints black. If I save the PDF file and then double click it, Adobe comes up and prints it full color. I'd appreciate it if it can brought to soneones attention.

Thank you.

Bei manchen PDF Dateien 2,7 MB bekomme ich die Fehlermeldung Datei beschädigt. im Originalpostfach ( t- online ) Zugang über Internet ist der Anhang ok. Wenn ich die Datei vom Server direkt ( z.B. t-online nochmals an meine E- Mail Adresse sende und dann über mein Thunderbirth Mailprogramm öffne, ist die Datei ok. Der selbe Effekt tritt auch auf meinem Lapptop mit Linux Betriebssystem auf. Was kann die Ursache sein?

I can't open an email attachment with last part rs6.net. This is a reliable email with important information I need for a church conference.

Hi everyone,

I’m new to Thunderbird. I’m using version 149.0.2 (aarch64), and I’ve noticed that when I receive one or more attachments, I only see a file called winmail.dat.

Is there a way to view the actual attachments, whether they are PDFs or other file types? Thank you!

Today the pictures,jpg, stopped opening automatically in Thunderbird mobile. Now there is a View link and its just not good to have to go through the extra steps to see the pictures. It must be an update that broke it because my settings didn't change. Also, It would be helpfull to see date and time of messages instead of day of the week.

С других сервисов письма отправляются нормально. Подскажите в чем проблема?

When I type the word "attachment" in version 149.0.2 I no longer get the warning bar across the bottom of the screen. I do have the "check for missing attachments" box checked in Settings.

I am working on a new laptop running Windows 11. Thunderbird was successfully installed a week ago and was running fine until I made a change related to OneDrive - attempting to remove OneDrive as a default location for files. later, I attempted to open an MS Word attachment to an email and got this message from Microsoft Word: "Unable to open the existing file: (C:\Users\..(myname)..\AppData..\Normal.dotm)".

I think my OneDrive action - removing a OneDrive folder from my C:/Users/..(name)../ location on my laptop - per Windows support directions, caused this. Maybe a disconnect between Thunderbird and MS Word? I can open other file types that are attachments.

Can you help explain and correct this problem?

Thanks

T-Bird,

Using the latest version of Thunderbird, all of the sudden I cannot attach/send photos or documents. The 'send to' mail icon in the menu is not lit up to accept the attachment. The message come back 'no file associated'. My defaults are as they were. I have been using Thunderbird email client for likely twenty years. What has changed and how can I get my Windows 11 to recognize again? Would reloading the program help? Any information/help would be much appreciated as I am not a system dive in file changing techie. Thanks, Doug

Ich benutze Firefox auf zwei Windows 11 Rechnern. Die Version ist auf beiden Rechnern gleich, (149.9 esr 32Bit ) , beide Rechner greifen im Fall des Verfassens einer E-Mails mit Anhängen auf einen gemeinsamen Speicher über LAN zu, seit kurzem gibt es bei einem der beiden Rechner aber beim Anhängen einer Datei an die Mail eine Verzögerung von ca. 5 Sekunden, bevor der Anhang auftaucht, unabhängig von dessen Größe. ( Also auch kleine Pdf´s werden verzögert angezeigt.) Der zweite Rechner hat das Problem nicht, selbst bei grösseren Anhängen. ( Auch sind die Rechner fast bau-und ausstattungsgleich ) Testprogramme auf dem Problem-PC zeigen keine Auffälligkeiten beim Schreiben und Lesen, auch die Internet-Verbindung ist die gleiche... Habe bereits die Einstellungen der Konten und des Programms in beiden Rechnern verglichen, sie sind gleich. Hat jemand eine Idee, woran das liegen kann?

Grüsse, Martin

What happened to the useful top right window box for attachments on my outgoing emails, can I return it? It's gone to the bottom and is really annoying, I mean who decides these useless and unhelpful changes?

Hello, I’ve just started using Thunderbird and I really like it so far.

I have one question regarding attachments. In emails that include attachments, is it possible to change how the attachment area is displayed? Currently, it appears as a single line at the bottom of the message. Ideally, I’d like to have it displayed more prominently, preferably at the top of the message, similar to how it appears in Outlook.

So far, the only adjustment I’ve made is setting mailnews.attachments.display.start_expanded to always show attachments expanded. Are there any other settings or methods to further customize the attachment view or position?

Thank you in advance.
