Since I updated a few days ago the extractor is now freezing when I use it to automatically extract selected attachments
It works fine when I use it manually
Before the update it worked fine.
However it occurred ocasionally before the fix on a machine running Vista
Also it may be occuring with messages with more than one attachment


Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Tag emails coming from a source
2.Set up to extract from messages that are tagged
3.include multiple attachments


Expected Results:  
Extractor will freeze part way through the extraction

Continued to finish

Assuming you mean the Attachment extractor extension, then you should raise the issue with the extension's author (link below). Whilst Thunderbird updates try not to break extensions, it is possible - however we need the extension author to tell us what is not working. If an extension update breaks, then it is the responsibility of the extension author to fix it. Therefore resolving as invalid as it is the extension author that needs to look at this in the first instance.
