Summary: KMail forgets the compression setting after saving a
mail in Drafts folder with compressed attachment(s)
Product: kmail
Version: 1.9.5
Platform: Debian testing
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs kde org
ReportedBy: leva az isten hu
Version: 1.9.5 (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from: Debian testing/unstable Packages
OS: Linux
1. New message...
2. Attach a file
3. Check the Compress checkbox
4. Save the message in the Drafts folder
5. Edit (reopen) the message in the Drafts folder
6. The filename has got the .zip extension, but the Compress checkbox is not checked.
So it is impossible to uncompress the attachment (ie. remove the zip extension, and send the file uncompressed). However, this is possible by deleting and adding the attachment again (<- inconvenient). Also, when checking the Compress checkbox again, KMail tries to compress the already compressed file attachment...
I think KMail should remember whether a message's attachments were compressed or not, and provide an option to uncompress the file, thus sending it in the original form.
