Jeremy: see comment 73. OpenOffice.org, which is the main culprit here,
now has a toolbar button to make the document editable.
I've opened bug 605417 on the alternative fix. But I'm not totally sure
it's the right thing myself.

We have the same problem with informations like a memo or other stuff
that only needs to be in a mail attachment and not stored permanently on
disk.
Is there not a possibility to integrate this feature in the advanced
configuration editor as attachment.readonly true or false so if the
sysadmin has
This behavior I did not expect either: I opened an attachment from an
e-mail, renamed it (making sure not to overwrite the original), saved
it, but did not realize I saved it with the original file in tmp / as a
tmp file. So after multiple saves, I closed Thunderbird (2.0.0.17,
Ubuntu) only to find
My Thunderbird (Windows XP, Version 2.0.0.14 (20080421) does even worse,

deleted file recovery could bring it back. I do find saved documents, I

I agree with pvilela: this is not a bug, it is actually a feature!

actually it is not as simple as pressing the save button, because I actually
have to "save as..." it, name it, then save it. All of that, even if I do
Well, to me the fix is a bug. I liked the way it worked. I used to edit the
ODF attachments and save them else when needed..
Now instead of edit-save I have to save-edit-save.
But worse than that, in 8.04 I get the following behaviour:
OpenOffice.org keeps opening the file, and opening, and
Sorry, don't see the bug linked above, it has nothing to do with this.

On a more general note - Launchpad is showing this as Fix Released

it will be fixed if TB3 is ever released, but there is no indication of

Why does every application use /tmp?
Laziness? Because it is always there?
Why does each application not have an option on where to set this application's
temporary dir?

I'm afraid correcting the bug in thunderbird would not be enough.
Firefox and any web browser would have to be corrected too. And probably
some other internet software.
Is there any mean to correct this behavior on a higher level ?

Saving temporary files elsewhere just relocates the problem - users
still won't know where they've saved the file.
Preventing edited files in /tmp/being deleted is (afaik) impossible
because you can't easily distinguish them from regular temporary files
that should be deleted.

I think this should be considered a system wide bug. Lots of people open
a document from firefox, thunderbird or any other internet program that
saves temporally files to /tmp when opening them with another
application.
The typical case is opening an attached document from a webmail to
openoffice.

If a user has been sent an OpenOffice document and they open it from the source
email, it is all too common for them to edit it and click Save.
