Hello,
I know how to insert an animated Gif into an email with Outlook Express (a simple copy/paste is enough), but when I use Thunderbird (which I would like to have as my default email client, just for the anti-spam feature for example, or to encourage open-source software...), I can't copy/paste an animated Gif into the body of an email: the result (no matter how I copy and paste) is always a still image in the email.
I even tried opening the animated Gif with Firefox (thinking it would be more compatible than Internet Explorer) to copy it and then paste it into the email with Thunderbird (which is possible from Internet Explorer to Outlook Express), but nothing works, the image is still frozen...
Is there a way to send an animated Gif in the body of an email using Thunderbird?
I look forward to your advice. Thank you in advance.

When you say that the image is frozen, is it just the sending? Have you tried sending yourself an email with an animated gif to see if the gif was animated or frozen upon receipt? Normally, it's supported in Thunderbird.
