I have checked this again on Ubuntu 13.10 with Thunderbird 1:24.4.0+build1-0ubuntu0 and seems to work as long as the network share is connected through Nautilus already.
When I then go to attach I can choose the already connected network share in the left Places panel. What does not work is when a network share is not connected already it will simply not appear in the dialog and cannot be chosen. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/105088 Title: Thunderbird does not honor gnome-vfs paths To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/thunderbird/+bug/105088/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
