[Bug 386489] [NEW] New local folders not writeable

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: thunderbird

Because I run both Windows and Ubuntu, I put all local mail folders onto
a LAN (NAS) network hard drive where the mail is accessible no matter
the OS. It is fine in Windows but under Ubuntu, if I create a new
folder, I cannot write to it. I CAN write to any existing folder or to
any created in Windows. I do not see a way of changing permissions on
the drive directly so clearly Thunderbird is missing something important
in that area. Please advise.
