Thunderbird 12.0.1, install addon – "with Attach 3.0"
below is quoted from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/thunderbird/addon/withattach/
As the author says, it will supply "reply with attachment" , but nothing found.
Is there someway else can satisfy this requirement?

As many other user raised the same requirement, I just want to
emphasize that: what we want is to reply the mail with original
attachment, without any more action. As now, it will only warn me if I
forget the attachment, if I wish to "reply with attachment".4 star to encourage the update!

Reading the question, it seems that the add-on does work. It is just that you want a slightly different action to be done.
Upon reply, the new message is addressed to the same addressees that were addressed in the replied message, they all already have the attachment. Thus, there is no logical reason to send it again.
You can use the forward action to introduce the message with the attachment to a third party. In this way the new addressee will get the attachment with context. You can also later reply to the original addressees with some informative contents letting them know you have forwarded the message. It will prevent unnecessary load on their message box and redundant network traffic.
