Public bug reported:

We work in workspace with changing pcs. (home folders are in the network)
We migrated from Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Desktop to Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS Desktop.
We use thunderbird 128.1.0esr-1 through snap.
Our signature all lie on an nfs mount (/var/nfs/oeffentlich/emailsignaturen/)
(fstab: nfs.mydomain:/var/nfs           /var/nfs          nfs4 
_netdev,default), where everybody as read access (drwxr-xr-x 1 nobody nogroup 
5,3K Aug 28 09:27 emailsignaturen).

After the update, Thunderbird no longer pointed to 
"/var/nfs/oeffentlich/emailsignaturen/mysignature.html"
but to "/home/myuser/var/nfs/oeffentlich/emailsignaturen/mysignature.html".

Correcting this to "/var/nfs/oeffentlich/emailsignaturen/mysignature.html" by 
directly editing the text, did not show an error, but the signature wasn't 
shown.
Using the file open dialog and selecting 
"/var/nfs/oeffentlich/emailsignaturen/mysignature.html" Thunderbird  / snap 
changed the link to:
"/run/user/2087/doc/e967c83e/mysignature.html"
Now the signature is shown, but only as long as I'm on the same pc.
When switching to another PC the linked file isn't there and I again have no 
signature.

No clue, whether this is a thunderbird or snap issue, but this is really a pain!
Would be nice if this could be fixed.
