Trying to attach files via command line (Windows 10): >Thunderbird -compose "attachment='C:\TEMP\one.txt'" Works well.

Trying to attach files with comma in filename: >Thunderbird -compose "attachment='C:\TEMP\one, two.txt'" Causes error like "File C:\TEMP\one doesn't exists, therefore can't be attached" (translated from Russian).

TB uses comma to separate filenames/paths for each attachment, but comma in filename causses problem. How to solve this problem?

located a bug report which seems to be the same issue. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=743579 The info in the bug report may help you.

The ',' character is used to separates multiple attachments and so is causing some confusion when the comma is used within a filename. Try writing the comma ',' as %2C (the hex ASCII encoding of the comma character).

Neighter >Thunderbird -compose "attachment='C:\TEMP\one%2C two.txt'" nor >Thunderbird -compose "attachment='C:\TEMP\one%2C%20two.txt'" don't work for me. Same error.

BTW, how could I attach file like "something%2C.txt"? Will TB recognize %2C as comma code or as part of filename?
