Hello, I just found this post in google and I will admit I have not looked into the messages here in great detail. So what I am about to say may already be well known to other people.
Anyway, I ran into an instance of the above problem; in particular, a client sent me three .mov files totaling 15Mb. I clicked the message once, but it did not appear at once. So I opened it into a separate window. After finally saving the attachments, I closed the window, did some things with the video files, then went back to the message to reply. At this point in time it started downloading the whole message with attachments again! So rather than punching a hole in my LCD monitor I decided to get to the bottom of this problem, because I have recommended Thunderbird to so many people and they would hate me if they were ever as frustrated as I was because of Thunderbird. So I went though this post and a few others, then eventually got to searching through the advanced configuration editor and found this setting: browser.cache.disk_cache_ssl Then it clicked, we are both using SSL. The value here defaults to false for SSL and true for non SSL, which makes sense to some extent; it is more secure to not cache the data locally. So I set that to true and its like difference between walking on sand vs. walking on concrete! -Jeff P. -- mozilla attachments are dowloaded multiple times https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/275471 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
