           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.
