Hi I am using gnome in FC6 on my system. I installed nautilus-actions for customizing the right click menu in nautilus. I ran nautilus-actions-config --> click add and put in the following information label: send as atttachment in mail Path: /usr/bin/thunderbird Parameters: -compose "attachment=%u" and leave everything else default. Now when I right click on any file and click send as attachment in mail, I get a thunderbird compose windows with "attachment=file:///path to filename" in to field. I dont know how to solve this. Seems to be a problem with thunderbird itself as i get the same output when I do it in shell (ie when I ran thunderbird -compose "attachement=file:///path to filename". There site specifies the same sytax as is evident from the following url http://www.mozilla.org/docs/command-line-args.html -- Thanx Pritam Ghanghas
