Title:
  even with thunderbird-gnome-support no attachments through SMB
  possible (gfs)

Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Description:	Ubuntu 9.04
  Release:	9.04

  thunderbird-gnome-support:
    Installed: 2.0.0.21+nobinonly-0ubuntu1.9.04.1
    Candidate: 2.0.0.21+nobinonly-0ubuntu1.9.04.1
    Version table:
   *** 2.0.0.21+nobinonly-0ubuntu1.9.04.1 0

          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  We have an samba-share in our office. I often need Documents to mail
  from there, so it would be nice, if Thunderbird canhHandle smb://
  /gfs-links after installing thunderbird-gnome-support.

  When i try to attach an file from this share i just get:

  There was an error attachment
  smb://WAVECON;cemil@192.168.4.10/whatever/whereever/document.sxw.
  Please check if you have access to the file.

  And yes: i have access :-) My share was created with the gnome-wizzard
  "Connect to Server"  and works without any problems.

  Before i tried using the gnome-wizzard and gfs i used autofs to access
  my shares, which worked (of course) without any problems, because it
  is a "normal" path in the eyes of thunderbird.
