Thunderbird has the same problem as Firefox at the moment. It has lost its integration into KDE and shows the Gnome-filemanager when you save an attachment from an E-Mail.

I have filed a Bug on this: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=749440

Let´s hope that it also will be fixed with the next update

This is all one and the same problem, why a new thread?

new thread, as suggested by DenverD in the Firefox-Thread, as info for all the people who search by Google or in the forums

It might be one and the same technical problem for the involved developers, but it is certainly not the same problem for the end-users that suffer from this. Some use FF and do not even know what Thunderbird is. The vv is a bit less probable, but a user might see the problem in Thunderbird and not in FF because (s)he did not download until so far in FF.

We want that as many people as possible find that this annoying problem indeed exists, taht other suffer also and we want to point to the bug so they may add there support.

i was under the impression that Thunderbird and Firefox are different
applications, albeit from the same wellspring…

I’m confused because Thunderbird never had that kind of KDE integration
which Firefox on openSUSE used to have.
So people always had the Gtk file dialog unless they fiddled with addons
or stuff. There is no known issue in Thunderbird at the moment from my
perspective.
If someone thinks there is an issue we need more information and
probably a bugreport.

Thanks,
Wolfgang

its new: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=749440

for reference: my TBird 3.1.19-0.25.1 in 11.4 with KDE4.6 uses “file
save” and “file open” window panes very much like those i’ve been seeing
for years in both FF and TB… <shrug>

I must admit, that I am not really sure anymore if there ever was a KDE filemanager in Thunderbird. When the comment in the Bugreport is true, that there never was a KDE integration… ? And I am also quite sure that this issue came to my attention, after the issue in Firefox popped up. So maybe before that, I didn´t care, but now I do… :embarrassed: :confused:
