Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 14.04.3 - Thunderbird 38.3.0

Samba shares are mounted and accessible via Files file manager.

Drag-n-Drop file from mounted Samba share into new Email attachments
area works.

Cannot send email due to:

"Sending of the message failed.
There was an error attaching smb://server/path/to/file. Please check that you 
have access to the file."

In April 2014 it was marked as "Fix released" - not sure what that means ... 
because it's not working here.
