if you install msoffice / outlook after tbird it breaks the tbird default mail client function by replacing the mapi files.

so reinstall tbird, set it as the default mail client when your an administrator.

 So, three components are involved in the problem:

 1.  Internet Explorer because it sets the system-default email
 client;

IE is not involved; Windows *is* involved.

Right. I read (or so I believed) in at least one post that IE was used to set the email client.

Whether it's IE or Windows, the place to look for information is M$.

 I have had some luck getting solutions on the Mozilla forum:

 If the cause of the problem is Internet Explorer, you may be waiting
 a long time for an answer.  But you never know your luck.  There is a
 Google search tool for M$: http://www.google.com/microsoft

 I believe this is a M$ issue.  I have problems of that kind with my
 file associations manager, which definitely seems to favour its own
 applications.  It is extremely frustrating. :-X

It probably has to do with MS's implementation of MAPI.

So, I would be looking to M$ sources of information as well as here and the Mozilla forum.

Well, you cannot attach a file to an email unless it is a file. :-) So you have to save it somewhere first, then open TB, then navigate to where you saved it so you can attach it. Doing that with a single click has no appeal for you??
I see.  You might want to send an unsaved document.

Good luck.
