[Desktop-packages] [Bug 297256] Re: Detached attachments overwriting existing files with nothing

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 297256] Re: Detached attachments overwriting existing files with nothing
Hello Regnuh. Thanks for submitting this bug and reporting a problem with Thunderbird. You made this bug report in 2008 regarding Thunderbird and there have been several versions of Thunderbird since then. Could you confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the ticket? Or, if it is still a problem, could you come to Launchpad and make a comment to that effect? Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu and Thunderbird better.
