Almost same thing here, however with Thunderbird 2.0.18 (20081125). I am running Kubuntu Intrepid 8.10 with Linux 2.6.27-7-generic.
Interestingly, it worked perfectly before the most recent update from the kubuntu repositories. First things I noticed: 'detach all' or 'delete all' or 'save all' seems to be disabled in the menu appearing with right-click. So I had to delete five files indidividually, using detach. After the first one is detached, it seems that the first attachment can't be deleted anymore. In the fact, the next item becomes true: Next: messages seem not to disappear, i.e.they don't get marked 'deleted'. I start deleting the files manually, each item by hand (again, delete all won't work). I restart Tbird, hoping that might help, rereading the maildirectory. To my astonishment, the same huge email somebody sent me, appears twice now!!! this is really a problem now! I haven't managed yet to get rid of these attachments as of now - please fix this, thunderbird is a great application and has been absent for a really long time of such nuisances! :) -- detach attachments does not work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/247404 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
