Why are attachments saved with FiltaQuilla empty?
Hi all,
I am using FiltaQuilla (add-on) in Thunderbird to save the attachments of received e-mails (filtered on domain, e.g. "@example.com") to a specific folder for each sender. But for some reason, all saved files are empty. The file name is correct, so all attachments seem to saved, but without their content. I checked the attachments in the mails: they are not empty files.
I've added a screenshot of one of the filters (my apologies, but it's in Dutch). A little translation: Filter: - From, contains, @example.be Actions: - Move message to, VERWERKT (other folder in mailbox) - Save attachments to, C:\FTP\...\...\MAIL_IN - Mark as read
This is a very weird problem, and I cannot figure out the cause. All help is very much appreciated, every hint might get me on the trail to the cause and solution!

Does it make any difference if you save the attachment before moving the message? You might also need to have the messages marked as read before moving them.
Thank you for your suggestion. I've tried it and put the actions in different orders, but the saved attachments still arrive empty...

Thank you for the link! I used the action "Move Later" instead of the regular "Move message to" and... It worked! All files seem to be saved perfectly now; I didn't find any more dreadful "0 KB".
Thank you so much for your help!
