Thunderbird blocking local image file inclusion in signature

Toad-Hall replied
Joseph Higgs

This started for me today on Thunderbird for Linux Mint 128.10.2esr.

I have searched this and found others have had this problem off and on since 2019 or before.

I have not found a useful solution.

So, what changed?

Why?

How to return to the previous functionality which was just fine for my needs?

thanks in advance for any help

Probably some sort of permission related the the SNAP packages Ubuntu uses now where everything is in a sandbox

A possibility for others but mine is not a snap install.

Where is the signature html file located ? On desktop / local folder or is the html file in a file share type of folder etc?

example: I have a 'Signatures' folder in C://Users/username/Documents/Signatures So it's stored locally on computer and not file share nor in anything like dropbox etc. It contains any image files I use in signatures and also the actual signature html file used in Account Settings.

or is the signature html file stored locally on computer but the image itself located on a website ?
