OK, if I remember correctly there are various different
ways of forwarding messages : inline, as attachment, ...

Edit / Preferences / Mail & Newsgroups / Composition

It might be worth checking that both Thunderbird *
Seamonkey are configured to forward in an identical way.

Thanks for the quick reply. I did another test. I tried the same thing
using Thunderbird. That is to say, I sent an email with an attachment
to myself. This worked. Then I tried to forward it to the same email
address as I tried in SeaMonkey, and it worked just fine.

So it cannot be the receiving mail server as far as I can see. That
mail server was the same one for both tests, SM failed and Tbird worked.

Neil, the receiving server depends on the recipient. Did you send to
yourself with the previous test, also? Check if you're always forwarding
as attachment, as Philip TAYLOR suggested.

I have two separate email addresses. To test I did as follows. I created an email in email client A, added an attachment, and sent it as a test to my email client B. That worked.

Then I went to B, found the email that I had just received (from myself) and tried to forward it back to A. Got the error message and the email was not sent.

When I did all that in Thunderbird it all worked as it should. No errors.

(Perhaps I should mention that I use the IMAP protocol.) So, in both SM and Tbird I am using the same email clients, so presumably the same servers. In both cases I sent from A to B, then went to B and tried to forward back to A. Tbird worked, SM didn't.

Thanks

Neil
