A message with a file attached never arrived

Attach a quotation, press Send, and it failed, with an error naming a file that was sitting exactly where it should be. Not a new fault: no message with a file attached has ever gone.

What you saw

You attached a file (a quotation, a drawing, a signed copy), pressed Send, and the message failed. The error named the file and said there was no such file:

ENOENT: no such file or directory, open ’…/email/1789876076016-…-QT_2026-27_0020.pdf’

Which reads like the file went missing. It did not. It was uploaded correctly and was sitting exactly where it should be, the whole time.

What was actually wrong

Two reasonable decisions that had never been introduced to each other.

Uploaded files are recorded by where they sit inside the uploads folder, rather than by their full address on the machine. That is deliberate: the folder moves between installations, and a full address written into a record would be wrong the moment it did.

The part that hands a message to the mail server reads that address from where the program happens to be running instead. So it looked for the file one folder short of where it was, every time, and reported the only thing it could see: that nothing was there.

How long this has been true

As long as attachments have existed. This is not something that broke recently: the Send email button on a record has done it since the day it shipped. No message with a file attached has ever arrived.

Nothing caught it because every test of sending stands in for the mail server, and a stand-in never opens the file. The test passed, the code read correctly, and the only place the truth appeared was in a message to somebody trying to send a quotation.

What was done about it

✓

Fixed in one place, not four

Four different screens build a message (the record, a reply, a new message and the scheduled sweep), and each passed the address along unchanged. The correction sits where the message meets the mail server, so a fifth screen cannot get it wrong.

◉

A test that refuses both mistakes

Passing the address straight through, and correcting it twice, which would look for the file inside itself and fail the same way wearing a different hat.

⚑

Nothing to reinstall

It is a change on the server. Anything you send from now carries its attachment, in the browser and in the app alike.

Does this affect anything you already have?

Nothing was lost, and the files are all still there. Every attachment you added is stored exactly as it was. It was only ever the sending that failed.

Any message that failed this way is in Failed in the mail panel, with what went wrong beside it. Send those again and they will go. They were never delivered, so nobody received a half-message or an empty one; the message simply did not leave.

We are sorry. This one was ours, it was there from the beginning, and it took somebody trying to send a quotation to find it.

Only want this one module?

Individual modules are sold on their own alongside the plans. See every module’s price.

What about storage?

A single module includes 1 GB of storage per workspace (organisation) and Full Suite includes 5 GB per workspace (organisation): documents, attachments, file versions and photographs, counted together for everyone in it, not per user. Add more at any time in tiers, or move to Full Suite and take the larger allowance with it. Nothing is deleted if you run close; uploads are refused with a reason, and what you already have stays exactly where it is.

Annual or monthly?

Both. Annual works out cheaper per month and is charged once at the start; monthly costs a little more and can be stopped at the end of any cycle. The card shows the per-user-per-month figure on both, so the two are comparable at a glance rather than by arithmetic.
