Hi. I want to send an e-mail and attach another e-mail that I received earlier. (I do not want to just forward the earlier e-mail). Is that possible ? - and, if so, on clicking attach, where should I tell Thunderbird to search, please ? Many thanks for any help on this

Note: using W7 ultimate and Thunderbird 45.4.0

Sorry, I'm daft - just worked it out - Save e-mail as a file, then you can attach it in the normal way.

Been a long day....

You can also drag a message(s) from the main window and drop it onto a new message window to the right of the address area, just as you do in adding attachments from a Windows Explorer folder.

@sfhowes - thanks very much, had not realized that. Very useful to know.
