This screenshot https://www.meshparts.de/download/tcltk-notify.png shows
two notifications that were create with same command but they are different.

It seems that the "Info" icon (the big I) is hidden every two notifications.

Could this be a bug of the way the new notification command in
implemented for Windows?

These are the basic commands:

tk systray create -image logo_16 -text MESHPARTS
package require sysnotify
::sysnotify::Send $textmessage "Info"

P.S.: I could not attache a simple PNG file to this message using
Thunderbird. Is this a known issue?

eternal-september doesn't allow any binaries at all, not even small
widely supported ones. I do not know whether that's a good idea or not.
It doesn't even allow vCards and they're not even binary.

once upon a time I might have put it on an ftp server and included an
ftp URI with a sunset date but the government here seems to have the
ISPs DoSsing internet services left right and centre.

It is known, but not an "issue". USENET text newsgroups don't allow
binary postings, which rules out all forms of attachments (i.e.,
automated attachments, creative types /can/ work around some of the restriction but doing so is a manual process for both sender and all receivers).

And this restriction has been the norm on USENET for just about
forever.

The above code isn't part of the tk sysnotify command, so I'm not sure
what it's doing.

Thank you for pointing that out.
Indeed, I forgot that this command is a wapper around the actual command:

tk sysnotify "Info" $textmessage

But the issue stays the same.
When the above command is repeated the icon corresponding to the "Info"
option is shown or not shown.
