Summary: Detach attachments (save, remove, and link) from email
Product: kmail
Version: unspecified
Platform: SuSE RPMs
OS/Version: unspecified
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
ReportedBy: harland.coles at energy-x.com
Version: (using KDE 3.5.9)
Installed from: SuSE RPMs
Detach attachment(s) from email messages by:
a) saving it(them) into a chosen(or default) directory, then
b) removing/deleting it from the email, while retaining the rest of the email
contents, and
c) putting a linking phrase/identifier into the email with possible tagging
data such as date, size, type; so detached attachment is openable from within
email by a link (or even inline viewing still intact).
d) Optionally: upon forwarding email, detached attachment(s){i.e.
'detachments'} will be RE-attached before sending (further option[preference]:
if detached, then saved sent forwarded email message will only retain
'detachment link'.
I have been itching for this feature set for a long time. There exists a pipe
through filter 'Kmail Power Tools' written in perl listed on kde-apps.org, but
a built solution would be preferable - thus giving (d) above.
I greatly enjoy using KMail, as it has been a very solid and often used app. :)
Cheers
