When answering an email in a long sequence of emails, the send command results in "attaching..." and the system hangs.

Sometimes I have a long sequence of emails/reply emails, and when I try to send a next reply to that sequence and push the "send" button, this command does not result in "sending.." but in "attaching....". Problem is that the system seems to hang on "attaching" and the mail will not be sent. In order to send the replying message I have to copy the "new" text and paste it in newly set-up email message, which is quite cumbersome as I have to retype all addressees and the context of the "reply" email is lost.

Firefox doesn't do email, it's strictly a web browser.

If you are using Firefox to access your mail, you are using "web-mail". You need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.

If your problem is with Mozilla Thunderbird, let us know and we can move this thread to the Thunderbird queue. This question currently is in the Firefox queue for answers.

Indeed my problem is with Mozilla Thunderbird. Please transfer it to that forum. The problem is: When answering an email in a long sequence of emails, the send command results in "attaching..." and the system hangs.
