When I select a photo to email from "my pictures" or Picasa, Thunderbird is no longer opening a blank email with the photo attached.

I used to be able to select a photo in my pictures or Picasa, select size, select email, and a blank email would open in Thunderbird with the photo attached. I am wondering if there is a setting somewhere in Thunderbird that should be enabled.

Hope someone can help. thanks

Actually the problem was solved when I was asked to install "upgrades" to Thunderbird. Thanks for the suggestion.
