The attached appears when I try to send an email with an attachment after I have opened Thunderbird. If I save the email to Templates first and send from there the email will send. The only way I can get the attached to go away is to do ctrl-alt-delete thus losing the email and having to start over.

It's not a standard Thunderbird feature. What appears in your Tools|Add-on|Extensions?

I use an image resizer myself, but mine is obedient and has "go away" buttons that work.

But yours appears to be an automatic zip-style compressor for use on any file.
