Natao arisiva ity resaka mitohy ity. Mametraha fanontaniana azafady raha mila fanampiana.

You used to be able to select a photo and share it and it would resize it and appear in the thunderbird email window. What happened to this??

I used to send pictures regularly by selecting them in pictures and then pressing share and it would ask if you wanted to resize them and then they would appear in your email window as an attachment. it doesn't matter how hard I try to do this, it doesn't work and the email window doesn't open. What happened to this function? Is it null and void? It used to be so simple but now I am unable to send an attachment if it is a picture, or if I do the file is enormous. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

I think what you're describing is all external to Thunderbird. It has no native ability to resize pictures, so I think your OS is where this all happened.

I resize pictures using a graphics program, (e.g. Irfanview) and attach them using the tools provided within Thunderbird (e.g. Insert|Image).

There are add-ons that will resize images, but it does this as part of the sending process, whereas you're describing the images being resized prior to the email being prepared.
