attaching a previous email to a reply to an email
1) I get an email from (email@x) asking me to send information to (email address) 2) So I send an email to (email@x). I save this in Thunderbird 3) I then get a new message from (email@x) which asks me again to send the information in my previous email. This means they probably didn't receive the email sent in 2) or they didn't read it. 4) I click on reply to their message received in 3). I then want to attach the email which I sent previously in 2).
I cannot click on attach and select the email sent in 2) (which is saved in Thunderbird). I can of course click on the email sent in 2) and forward as an attachment, but I want it to be an attachment to the reply in 4) not a new email.
How should I proceed?

You can attach an email by drag and drop from the message list to a reply message, but it probably makes more sense to right-click your first reply in the Sent folder, Edit As New Message, and add something at the top like "here is the message I sent earlier".
Yes, you are correct, it works. Thanks. It takes me a bit of time to find out how to do even this because in Windows 11 the message I am typing fills the screen and I have to go back down to the task bar to find the Thunderbird file list, there doesn't seem to be a way to maintain all the tabs visible on the screen when composing a message, but I guess I just haven't found it. By the way when I get your reply from Mozilla and click on "This solves my problem" in the Mozilla email page, my browser says "Page not found", however if I click on "This doesn't solve my problem", I get to the answer where I can mark it as "This solves my problem". Just mentioning it. Its all far too clever for me. Thanks
On W11, an easy way to arrange the windows is to hover on the min./max. icon in the upper right and choose a side-by-side arrangement.
