* Note that Thunderbird already supports external file urls for attachments. We use these when we detach an attachment. We put in place holder headers as follows:
X-Mozilla-External-Attachment-URL: file:///C:/Users/David%20Bienvenu/Documents/75960.pdf
X-Mozilla-Altered: AttachmentDetached; date="Tue Sep 27 09:20:29 2011"
But the url could be a http or ftp url. So we could offer attachment storage for messages the user has already received, i.e., detach to the cloud.
