           Summary: Attachment size not always displayed in 'Open file'
                    dialogue
           Product: KMail Mobile
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: sabine at kdab.net


Version:           unspecified (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

While browsing to select a file to be attached to an email, a file size is not
always displayed in the 'Open file' dialogue.

However, attaching a huge file is a problem because the N900 is stuck for a
long while while attempting to send the email afterward.

So I think the user needs to be aware of the file size she wishes to attach to
avoid that as much as possible.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
- Launch Kmail-mobile
- Click on 'Write new Email'
- Enter a subject, a recipient (your imap inbox) and a few words in the text
editor
- Open the 'paper clip' tab
- Click on 'add attachment'
- An 'Open file' dialogue appears

Actual Results:  
In it you can see that most files have a date and time displayed underneath
their names but only a few of them have their sizes, especially the pictures
(user/photos) and  mp3 files.

Expected Results:  
The file sizes should all be displayed to prevent that the user attaches a huge
file without realizing it.

N900, 4:4.6~20101119.1198723-1maemo1.1198084
