No change to any permissions etc since using Icedove - simply "updated"
Thunderbird and then unable to send attachments.
Testing further with the following results:-
I can send an attachment from this Temp folder in my home directory
jimc@jupiter2:~$ ls -l | grep Temp
drwxr-xr-x 3 jimc paws4pets 12288 Feb 5 17:13 Temp
jimc@jupiter2:~/Temp$ ls -l | grep 17Q
-rw-rw-r-- 1 jimc paws4pets 82944 Apr 23 19:20 17Q1Accounts.xls
I cannot send an attachment from this temp folder
jimc@jupiter2:/mnt/44864d9b-2a13-4bcf-a0d3-ee42099439ea$ ls -l |
grep temp
drwxrwx--- 107 jimc paws4pets 12288 Apr 24 14:37 temp
jimc@jupiter2:/mnt/44864d9b-2a13-4bcf-a0d3-ee42099439ea/temp$ ls -l
| grep 17Q
-rw-rw-r-- 1 jimc jimc 82944 Apr 23 19:20 17Q1Accounts.xls
So is it a permissions issue after all?
Change the "Everyone" permission to allow reads on the "temp" folder to
check
Same problem but I will logout and in again to make sure new permission
is recognised so I will add new message when done.
In the meantime here's more info:
There are 2 users set on my system "jimc" and "admin"
Logged in as jimc (user 1900 - type administrator), sending attachment
from my home folder (or anywhere else) gives the error
Member of groups including admin, paws4pets
Attached file has no "strange" characters in name - have tried .pdf and
.xls files at different times
