I am on Linux (Fedora, Gnome) When I try to drag and attachment out of an email to a folder I get the following message:

--- Drag and drop is not supported An invalid drag type was used. ---

I get this for any time of file from any email. Any thoughts?

Note that I am using the latest version of Thunderbird, but I had this same issue with Linux Mint.
