Mac OS 10.11, Thunderbird 68.12.

When I reply, I want all the body to be quoted, but the attachments only to be mentioned (like in other mail clients "<photo.jpg>".

Now, TB quotes the attachments also.

How to tweak the settings?

Hmm, is this about how the attachments are handled by the sender?

When I reply to mail from gmail, attachments are not quoted. When I reply to mail from Apple Mail, they are quoted.

Is there a guide to handle these?
