I can confirm the "fix" presented by Joel. Pressing F8 (toggle preview screen) also toggles the "Attachments" menu item, appearing between the "Open Saved Messages" and "Closed" line items in the File drop down menu. I have a WIN XP PRO, sesrvice pack 3.
Thanks, Joel. Any body have any suggestions what is the cause? We have some computers that show this problem and some that do not; but are supposed to be configured the same.

That at least gets me around the problem, hopefully someone can fix this properly though. -- "Attachment" menu item is missing (sometimes) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/602221 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of the bug. Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Binary package hint: thunderbird Hi there, and thank You all in advance for Your help. Some now and then (almost once per day) the "file ->attachment" menu item vanishes from my Mozilla Thunderbird. Please, see the attached PNG screen shot. You see here that Thunderbird is showing a message text, and in the bottom line You see that the message has 2 PDF file attached. If I right-click onto the attachment icons I can access them, save, detach, or delete. But if I select the main "file" menu (see PNG image) I have no attachment interface. As long as I use keyboard often then mouse, I have no access to the attachment management. Please, could You help me? I think this is a bug, because the "attachment" menu item vanishes only a few times per day. Sorry for my English.
