Thunderbird does not know how to display .doc files so this is expected behavior. Unless you're saying you can't even tell there's an attachment? That would be a bug.

I think this is a dupe of bug 674473 but I can't view the attachment (no permission).
Dveditz: Could you check that ?

Yes, I can't even tell there's an attachment. Add screenshot snap.jpg.

Could you attach the file as exported from Thunderbird in EML format? Then we could see how it is constructed and why TB does not see the attachment.

My first attach file (2011-10-12 01:38 PDT, [e-mail]) is a letter exported from ThinderBird 7.0.1 in eml format (filename - letter.eml).

My first attach file (2011-10-12 01:38 PDT, [e-mail]) is a letter exported from ThinderBird 7.0.1 in eml format (filename - letter.eml). Can you download it?

It's not in .eml format it's in word and hidden to protect your privacy. can you resave it using Thunderbird. edit it in notepad and replace email addresses with xxx@xxx and then attach it here again.

Strange, I loaded first attached file and its name was letter.eml and I loaded it in the TheBat successful. The unix.doc - this is a attached file to the letter. The letter.eml - this is a file attached to bugreport.
I saved letter from Thunderbird again (i selected the letter and select "Save as...") and attached it again to bugreport (copy this file on http://rghost.ru/25404351)

Sorry for my english. Проще было бы писать конечно на русском.

The attachment is in a multipart/related context and has not even a Content-ID. Making such "misplaced" attachments available again is covered in bug 674473; also note that there will be a workaround with Thunderbird 8.0, see bug 602718.
