It has been a little while, now, but I have only realized a few days ago. My emails with attached files don't arrive to their destination. Even to myself, I get a delivery failure message.

I have tried looking in my preferences settings, in the "Attachements" box, I only have an option for sharing large files.

What is happening???....

thanks if you can help. CarloB.

Hi Christ1,

Here's the delivery failure message :

Your messages are sent. Attachments have got nothing to do with the problem.

From the error message, the recipients email provider has a problem with SPF validation of the messages sent via your email provider. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sender_Policy_Framework

You need to talk to your email provider. This is not a Thunderbird problem.
