Steps to reproduce:
That bug is extremely critical, please repair that major error as soon as possible.
For example you have two e-mails in inbox folder and that two e-mails have attachment with the same name (Invoice.pdf), but the invoices are different ones.
You stand on e-mail1 with attachment Invoice.pdf which you open and close (the Invoice.pdf is stored temporary in C:\Users\User1\AppData\Local\Temp\pid-xxxxx as Invoice.pdf).
Than you open e-mail2 and open there another attachment with the same filename Invoice.pdf and close it (the Invoice.pdf is stored temporary in C:\Users\User1\AppData\Local\Temp\pid-xxxxx as Invoice-1.pdf).
Now you want to compose new e-mail and drag and drop Invoice.pdf from second, third or XX opened e-mail with the same attachments name. The filesize and name of attached file is shown right at bottom of the window, but if you open or send that attachment, the Thunderbird opens (and also send) the wrong attachment -> the attachment which you opened first and is stored as Invoice.pdf in temp folder.
I am using Thunderbird for more than 15 years and trusted it. Before 115 version I didn't meet that problem. But I don't know if I upgraded in November23 from version 102... or 91...
I checked that problem on 4 different computers with Windows 10 and Windows 11. The same problem occurs.
Actual results:
If the attachments which you move from another e-mails have the same filenames, the handling and adding from temporary folder is wrong and you easily sent wrong attachment to wrong recipient if you don't check what is added!
That bug is extremely critical and something like that should not happened!
Expected results:
When moving/attaching attachments from another E-mails to compose window, the right attachment must be added, not the wrong one from temporary folder!
That must be repaired immediately.
Can someone please let me know how to include supporter/programmer/developer, because that bug is very dangerous in the way of sending wrong attachments to wrong people.
I found also similar bug reported, maybe the problem is the same. Check: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1863033

Testing on linux daily, I can't reproduce sending the wrong file - on drop the file to use gets removed.
The underlying problem should be the same though.
