I don't honestly knwo if these are relevant but they'r the only 'attachment' settings I can think of. Have you looked in the config editor? *Possibly* try this from Mozilla.... Removing all the settings for attachment-handling actions If Thunderbird doesn't seem to be performing attachment-handling actions as it should, or if certain options are grayed out (not selectable) when they shouldn't be, and you can't resolve the issue, it could be due to a corrupted "mimeTypes.rdf" file. Thunderbird uses this file to store your file-handling preferences for specified file types. Deleting it sometimes cures the problem. To do so: 1. Exit Thunderbird if it is running. 2. Recommended: make a temporary backup of your Thunderbird profile (or at least of the mimeTypes.rdf file). 3. Delete mimeTypes.rdf from your Thunderbird profile folder. 4. Restart Thunderbird to see if the problem has been fixed. Also just found this online for Thunderbird not opening URLs in Firefox.. may help.. http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/feature/15898.html I had this problem and to be honest I have no clue how it was resolved.. possibly a bad install or update.. has it ever worked properly?
