           Summary: Kmail replaces dots in filenames with underscores when
                    saving attachments
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 2.0.89
          Platform: Archlinux Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: fetidfrog at gmail.com


Version:           2.0.89 (using KDE 4.5.80) 
OS:                Linux

Saving an attachment with more than one dot in it results in all but the last
dot being replaced with underscores.
For example, test.tar.gz becomes test_tar.gz

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a file with two dots in the filename, e.g. test.tar.gz
2. Attach it to an email and send it to yourself (or someone using kmail).
3. Open the received email, or open it from your sent-mail folder. Notice that
the filename is as expected (e.g. test.tar.gz).
4. Right-click the attachment and save-as. Notice that the filename in the
save-as dialogue has been changed as described (e.g. test_tar.gz).

Actual Results:  
All dots in the filename are replaced with underscores, except the final dot.

Expected Results:  
The filename shouldn't be changed!
