EML-Import: Missing images, missing attachments #655
Comments
@Pierre-de-la-Verre |
I have exactly the same issue. I uploaded a huge amount of old mails in eml format. Import was fast and complete. But all the imported attachments can neither by displayed nor be saved (at least JPG and PDF are affected). When I click on mails with JPG attachments for the fraction of a second the picture is visible in the details window and afterwards it is disappearing. Attachments from newly received emails are readable (it only affects the imported ones). I imported eml from an old windows mail client. I have new windows 11, also German. Also current thunderbird. (just installed for the first time on a new laptop). |
@JensFreund If you can id a single eml message that has this issue that you could send me, that would be helpful. |
I have sent a folder with some emails with attachments to the email you mentioned. |
With the version in the link above it works (at least with one folder)! I can see jpg and pdf. I will try a full upload. (have to find a workaround for another issue upfront) It took me quite a time, since I did not find any download button. :-) -- For beginners to thunderbird:

@JensFreund |
I had a typo in your email address and I did not receive any nont-deliverd mail. I will send it again. |
Sorry -- I am still not used to the new keyboard of my new laptop :-) |
@JensFreund |
I first have to fight to get a handfull of new mails out of an inflated folder created from the last upload. (The file size of the folder is now 18 GB which causes thunderbird to not react on some commands like moving to another folder). The only thing I can currently do is deleting the complete folder, but I do not want ot delete the new emails. --- This can take a while.... |
@JensFreund |
2000 mails in a folder with 11 subfolders worked. I can read all the pdf attachments and one txt attachment. |
The inflated folder was my biggest folder and it was the only sent items folder (if this is a hint) |
@JensFreund |
this was not the sent items folder yet. That was only a small subset of my mails. I will try the sent items folder next |
It is much slower than the other upload. I got stuck at 1842 of 2006 emails. It simply stopped. But the file size is now a bit more than 10 times smaller 1.29 GB for 1842 mails (was growing porportionally with the mails). Attachments are readable. Probably it will all working if I delete the inflated folder. |
@JensFreund |
The 1842 mails are ok. It did not stop. (Looks I merged mails from another send items folder in it to get the 2006). So it all works fine. (sorry for the confusion, but I am not working on a planned test case, but on my real data :-)). It still was slower, but this is probably only because there are more attachments |
@JensFreund |
I just see that I can distinguish new and old mails not only by the date, but by the fact that I can move the new mails into another folder, while I cannot move the old mails in the old folder (uploaded with the version with the bug). ...... Since I only want to move the new mails, it is ok :-) |
Good! |
Only 2 new mails overall got stuck in the old folders. I cannot save them (like I cannot save the old mails). I also cannot move them. But I can forward them to myself. This operation makes the attachments readable again (but then you have the wrong sender of course). |
Upload of all my about 14000 emails in option folder (in two tranches one with nearly 99% of the mails) with subfolders worked. Filesize is as expected. Attachments are visible. Now I can move individual mails from one folder to another. (Moving folders also worked in the past). |

Hi Christopher and Jens |
So far everything is working fine besides one smaller issue: |

Hi, |
@Pierre-de-la-Verre |
I just imported 22'000 EML again and the problems I reported before are gone - the attachments in the integrated images are here and can be used and displayed. Great work! Thanks a lot! |
@Pierre-de-la-Verre |
Yes, with the version downloaded yesterday. |
Excellent. Thanks for your testing and patience. |
I exported hundreds of EML from Outlook 2010, using CoolUtils. Many of them have attachements (PDF, Images, ..) and embedded images.
I have Win 10, 64 bit, German, current Thunderbird and current Add-In (14.1.2). Do I have a wrong setting? What can I do?
regards!
