I use filelink feature of Thunderbird a lot for attaching big files. However, when ever I use filelinks Thunderbird puts a big html block with link to the attachment as seen in this screenshot: http://imgur.com/XexKeLK . Initialy, it looks good and fancy but very soon it becomes very distracting, annoying and confusing to recipient. Few times people also confuse it with advertisement! Also, while using filelink, thunderbird would attach a file of 0 bytes with names like "Part1.2". So my question is: 1. Is there any way to simplify the html block generated by filelink feature? Just a plain link with may be file size is good enough, atleast for me. I have tried editing the source HTML of outgoing email myself but it is not a solution as it has to be done for each and every email. 2. Can Thunderbird not attach 0 byte files while using filelink? It is also a source of confusion to recipient. Thanks
