Hi, Never seen this b4. Never had trouble with images/attchments. I received an email with 4 images -- though TB doesn't show any indication that they are "attachments". The images appear as larger thumbnails in the text of the msg or any reply. TB says the message is 16.8mb.

In the Inbox email I can do nothing to the images. They are visible, not clickable, not resizable.

If I reply, the images are clickable and resizable. 2-clicking on one displays "Image Properties". Not much useful there except:

The Image Location: mailbox:///C:/Users/zzzzzzz/AppData/Roaming/Thunderbird/Profiles/nnnnnnn.default/Mail/Local%20Folders/Drafts?number=110936&header=quotebody&part=1.4&filename=20161121_234439.jpg and actual size: 4032x3024

I right-clicked and "copy"ied, thinking I can grab all the data and paste it into Photoshop. But Photoshop knows nothing of any clipboard contents, paste is disabled in PS.

Anybody have an idea of _why_ the images aren't _excisable_ from TB? Is this some sort of JSON thing where I need a tool to extract "20161121_234439.jpg" from the inbox(msf) or drafts(msf)?

thanks everyone!

Never mind. sorry 'bout that -- "save Image as" is amazing!
