This issue as reported 13 years ago is still present as initially reported.
I experience it in Gnome 3 on Fedora 37. Other applications are able to provide a normal 'Save as' dialogue box - it would be nice if Thunderbird could fix this. Unexpected behaviour like this means I have to explain to new staff why Thunderbird is doing something weird and it reduces the appeal of switching from proprietary software to open source. In addition to the jarring 'Open' button I can not navigate my filesystem by typing the first few characters of the directory that I want to enter. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1774121 Title: Save button on "Save All Attachments" dialog says "Open" Status in Mozilla Thunderbird: Confirmed Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Good day, I'd like to report a bug in Thunderbird 52.8.0 (64 bit).
