I'd like to free up space in my IMAP mailbox, so I'd like to detach images from large emails to a network share (mounted as drive, let's call it S:/ (\\servername\sharename\)). If I detach this images to a folder on drive S:\, Thunderbird does not show the image under the message body, only "broken image" sign appears. If I double click on the file name, images are opened, so path is OK. If I detach image to local drive like C:\, things are the same. How can I utilize Thunderbird to load detached images content from network drive? I've using many computers, but drive letter for shared folder is the same for all, so maybe this is a good way to access / preview every attachment from every computer. Please help how to fix this problem.

you removed the image from the file. so what is left displays. Perhaps you need to start Archiving your mail to local folders instead of your IMAP account.
