Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: thunderbird
Thunderbird does not seem to create an outgoing e-mail with an
attachment. I have tried this using an application (cheese, which has an
option to mail photos) and directly on the command line as per console
output below. I have verified that the image to be attached exists and
is readable:
v...@kereru:~/Documents$ cheese
kfmclient(17653) ClientApp::doIt: Creating ClientApp
<unknown program name>(17655)/ ClientApp::doIt: Creating ClientApp
kioclient(17655) ClientApp::kde_open: KUrl("mailto:?subject=Media
files&attachment=/home/vik/Pictures/Webcam/2009-07-14-120355.jpg")
v...@kereru:~/Documents$ thunderbird "mailto:?subject=Media
files&attachment=/home/vik/Pictures/Webcam/2009-07-14-120355.jpg"
v...@kereru:~/Documents$ ls -l /home/vik/Pictures/Webcam/2009-07-14-120355.jpg
-rw-r--r-- 1 vik vik 45270 2009-07-14 12:03
/home/vik/Pictures/Webcam/2009-07-14-120355.jpg
v...@kereru:~/Documents$
In each case, a new e-mail window is created, but the attachment is
missing.
Using up-to-date 32-bit x86 Ubuntu 9.04 and thunderbird 2.0.0.22+build1
+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.9.04.1 on a KDE4 desktop.
