I am a new user of Thunderbird, Mozilla's e mail program. When I compose a new email, I sometimes like to add a clipping, from my clipping file. I hit attach and my clippings appear. I highlight the one I want to put in my email, and try to drag it from the clippings list into the email like I did in my former e mail program, but now the dragging does not work, When I am in email, the image will not drop. so my question is, how to get one of my pictures into my email message I am composing? Hope someone can tell me how to do this :) Thank you :)

Which platform are you on?

windows or linux

Any which way what I found out was in case of thunderbird with linux (ubuntu) I can drag a file from any of my home folder or accessible linux partition. But if you drag it from any windows drive or network drive then when you drag in the file to compose window it takes the path of the file and not actual file.

See if this is your problem.

Hi Joshiss, Thanks for trying to solve my problem. I have neither windows or linux, I have an iMac (Apple/MacIntosh) computer with operating system 10.9.2 . I did notice that my clippings file transferred for easy access on Thunderbird e mail, when opened says windows in the right column But when I go to my ORIGINAL CLIPPINGS SOURCE in another file on this new computer, from there I can still drag my choice into the current e mail I am composing. But getting to that original source where my clippings are , takes quite a few steps. Is there any means to shorten the process and be able to drag / or otherwise get a clipping into my email window? Also, once a clipping is selected, where do I indicate that this is the one I want to use????? Thanks for your help.
