Where this menu entry is come from? Debian hasn't a Desktop Action
section for Thunderbird. Please explain a little bit more how to
readjust this issue.

I developed it on my own/with help of google and members of siduction-Forum
It was ok and working fine with icedove, multiple attachments with long
filenames.
But it stopped working when the new Debian-Thunderbird showed up.
One of these siduction forum members showed me this:
In man bash we can read in Shell Builtin Commands section:
Unless otherwise noted, each builtin command documented in this section as
accepting options preceded by - accepts -- to signify the end of the
options.
The :, true, false, and test builtins do not accept options and do not
treat
-- specially. The exit, logout, break, continue, let, and shift builtins
accept and process arguments beginning with - without requiring --. Other
builtins that accept arguments but are not specified as accepting options
interpret arguments beginning with - as invalid options and require -- to
prevent this interpretation.
Note that echo does not interpret -- to mean the end of options.
... and that "--" seems to be the problem?
thunderbird -- -compose "attachment='$(echo %F | sed 's: /:,/:g')'"
this does not work with Debian-thunderbird!
i can't give you the error message, because i went back to
Mozilla-Thunderbird and i'm happy with that, because it's just working
fine with my "menu entry"
Thanks for your post!
