Re: [users] [Fwd: sending email attachment from writer tries to open new instance of thunderbird]

You need to create a, or modify your,  Thunderbird startup script to change:

<thunderbird> -compose attachment=file:///var/tmp/svga3.tmp/noname2.odt

into

<thunderbird> -remote 'xfeDoCommand(composeMessage,attachment=file:///var/tmp/svga3.tmp/noname2.odt)'

if an already running version of Thunderbird exists.

I have selected thunderbird as my email client. When I try to send a mail via File->Send->email attachment everything works fine if tbird is not already running. If it is running I get the "select a different profile" dialog from thunderbird, which of course I don't want to do.

Thanks in advance for any help,
Brian
