            Bug ID: 379988
           Summary: TNEF attachments not properly represented in UI
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 5.3.0
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: UI
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: s_dibbern at web.de
  Target Milestone: ---

I have got a TNEF attachment ("winmail.dat")containig two PDFs. These seem to
get automagically extracted to two folders in /tmp/,
/tmp/messageviewer_Bh3061.index.ktnef-0 and
/tmp/messageviewer_zg3061.index.ktnef-1. Within these two folders, the
contained PDFS got stored.

In the KMail representation of the e-mail the PDFs are represented by two links
into the file system. But apparantly the creation of these links fails somehow.
Instead of a link to "file:///tmp/messageviewer_Bh3061.index.ktnef-0/Some Long
File Name Containig Spaces.pdf" I get something like
"file:///%2Ftmp%2Fmessageviewer_Bh3061.index.ktnef-0%2FSome~1.PDF".

This is on a ext4 filesystem.

I don't get winmail.dats regularly these days any more, so I can't tell whether
this is a general problem or whether only few winmail.dats are affected.
