I have occasionally had difficulty forwarding a message containing pictures.
This has happened again, so I thought I would take this opportunity to try to
figure out what is happening. Using 2.0.0.18.
The message contains text and a photo. I do NOT have "display attachments
in-line" checked. I can right click and save the image. The image location is
mailbox:///home/xxx/.mozilla-thunderbird/is21drpp.default/Mail/Local%20Folders/Inbox?number=135538562&part=1.2&filename=image.jpg
When I simply forward or reply to the message, the picture is gone. If I chose
"edit as new", the message appears as I received it. But when I then attempt to
send it or save it, I get a message box:
"Unable to save your message as draft. [Similar on sending attempt.]
"There was an error attaching. Please check if you have access to the file."
It is clear that I do not understand what is the nature of the message with
embedded pictures but showing no attachments.
What is going on? What is the best way to handle these messages?
Thanks,
-Denis
