This happens to any version of Thunderbird (1.5.0.10 and 2.0.0.4) To verify map a SMB drive in Nautilus. Open Office can access the data on the share. Thunderbird cannot access data (like adding or saving attachments).
This is due to the fact that gnome_vfs requires a different approach to storing data on virtual drives. By far the best solution would be to require Gnome to access virtual drives like local ones. In order to achieve this, a redirection within Gnome would be required. -- Thunderbird does not honor gnome-vfs paths https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/105088 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
