Someone sent a message with an attachment. I replied but the attachment doesn't show in my reply. I want to be sure the attachment goes with the reply.

Unfortunately Micrisift have difficulty with understanding standards so they make mail programs that do not correctly encode attachments. Thunderbird can display them, but not forward defective mime encoding. This is a conscious decision of the developers, they are not spreading what they see as defective mail.

Forward such mail as an attachment. It is on the message menu (Alt + M) on on the drop down beside the forward button.
