A New Feature?
I am searching for a solution for my problem and maybe this is a possible new feature that would help many users. When I open my thunderbird, all attachements open in a new tab, easy and very usefull because of the invoices i need to pay are always open, and when paid i save+ close them. But then i have to send the invoice attachement to my accountant. So i have to go to the original mail AGAIN forward this mail to the accountant etc.....It would be easy if there was a little button in the open attachement tab that directly opens a new sendmail tab with the open attachement already included in the concept.....Maybe i didn't searched very well....BTW I love thunderbird and install it @ all my customers sites instead of MSOutlook, plugins are fine an email reading is once set up correctly the most easy to read interface. the attachement tab is displaying an url like : imap://my%40mail%2Ecom@imap.mailserver.com:993/fetch%3EUID%3E.INBOX.xxxx%3E128?part=1.2&filename=20210446.pdf&type=application/pdf. I can not even get that by a right click+ sent to email to work.....Yup I'm Belgium and dutch......so i hope i made my idea clear by not using the translate apps and just my brain......:)

Instead of using the built-in pdf preview, you might be better off opening pdf files in an external app, which makes emailing files a one-step operation and with a dedicated button. That is how it works with my pdf app, PDF-Xchange Viewer, but there are many others.

I can see a way to attach an open pdf to a message, but it's not much better than returning to the original message: copy the url of the pdf tab, imap://.... application/pdf, by selecting it then Ctrl+C, then start a new message and click the Attach button drop-down, Web Page..., paste the url with Ctrl+V. The pdf will show 0 bytes, but the entire file is sent as an attachment, although without the .pdf extension or the original name. Clumsy, but possible.
Thanks i did use that already........ but keep searching for better solutions offcourse
