Openning a file email directly from the composition screen
Hi!
I use a system here in my company that generates an automatic email and prepare it to be sent. We were using MS Outlook and we have migrated to thunderbird for lots of reasons.
But since it has migrated, the system cannot generate this email in the composition screen. It generates in the inbox.
Is there anything I can do to change this?
I have made a few tests and I realize that the same thing happens if I save an file email in my computer and try to open if with the thunderbird. It's supposed to open in edition mode, so the user can send it out, with just one click.
Thank you!

The path of a .eml file. This will launch Thunderbird with a window displaying the contents of the .eml file. For example, "C:\Program Files\Thunderbird\thunderbird.exe" c:\test.eml
What this means is that an EML file is a received massage. You can not designate it as an email to be sent.
Your "I use a system here in my company that generates an automatic email and prepare it to be sent." is not working correctly and never has, even if it did work with outlook if it is using EML files in this manner.

But an .eml or other compatible file is assumed to be a received and saved email message, hence opens in a read window. You could use Message|Edit Message As New in the menu, or right-click|Edit As New, either of which will open it in a new edit window.
Or you could follow the advice given here and send your message to Thunderbird as a command line argument. The example given there:
thunderbird -compose "to='john@example.com,kathy@example.com',cc='britney@example.com',subject='dinner',body='How about dinner tonight?',attachment='C:\temp\info.doc,C:\temp\food.doc'"
…(with suitable amendments for the actual paths to the executable and the attachment) works here for me and appears to be just what you're trying to do. Thunderbird opens with the passed arguments pasted into a new message, in the Compose window.

Thank you Zenos.
By command line...How can I edit an email file as new? I decided to pass it as an argumment. I have looked for it but so far...nothing!
Thanks again!

Hello!
So it used to work before. I've reading lots of posts and i saw that we can use command line to write a message like "thunderbird - compose", for example. When we use the shortcut or the button "send as new", it takes the eml file and send it as it was a new email. I mean, there might be a command for that to.
