Double-clicking attachments saves them to temp folder, not attachments folder

I'm having the same problem referenced in this question:

[saving to private folder in Thunderbird 91.4.1]

When I double-click an attachment like a PDF, it saves into an obscure temporary folder (for example, " /private/var/folders/03/11rmmn856ndc6p50q_ffc4xm0000gn/T/pid-20977 ") rather than to the folder I've designated for saving my attachments. I want those files to save to the folder with the rest of my attachments, so I have them for non-Thunderbird reference and access. How do I get TB to actually save the files there on double-click?

I ''want'' those files to save to the folder with the rest of my attachments, so I have them for non-Thunderbird reference and access.

Hi Matt, This specific operation is handled by the program you use to read the file (Say Adobe). it has nothing to do with Thunderbird.

If you want to store them in a specific locations, you must use right click and then Save As.
