Still in Thunderbird 60.4.0 as of 2019-02-23
Anybody working on this?
I agree it would be difficult to fix this for newly-received messages, but when runnig "Repair Folder", the software should take time to analyze messages for the presence of real attachments. Otherwise, whenever the user repairs folder (which is sometimes necessary) it is impractical to actually open each message in a list of hundreds, some of which take a long time to do so.
How about doing it in the background, so that false paperclips disappear after a while?
BTW my system is Linux Mint Rosa / Ubuntu Bionic.

I later noticed that gmail account has the issue resolved (paperclips show where they should) while Protonmail still displays them in all messages (upon repair). So it is account dependent.

No. The bug is unassigned and there hasn't been any activity.

I highly doubt this regressed - we've always treated multipart/mixed as
having attachment until we find out differently.
from bug 606233 comment 10 "we use multipart-mixed header at header download time to approximate whether there's an attachment. Then, when the whole message is run through the mime parser, we figure out for real whether there's an attachment. Gloda could be helpful here, since I think gloda has a much better idea of whether a message has an attachment or not when it indexes a message."
