           Summary: Attachments within GPG-encrypted mails cannot be saved
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.8
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: crypto
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: kdebugs at CustomCDROM.de


Version:           4.8 (using KDE 4.8.0) 
OS:                Linux

The is exactly the same as bug 289534, but as it appears in a different
KDE-version (according to bug 289534 it's supposed to be fixed in 4.7.4, but
the fix apparently did not make it into KDE 4.8) I reported it as a new bug
instead of reopening the old report.

I got a GPG encrypted mail with looks as follows:
****************************************************************
(...)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: multipart/encrypted; protocol="application/pgp-encrypted";
    boundary="v9Ux+11Zm5mwPlX6"

--v9Ux+11Zm5mwPlX6
Content-Type: application/pgp-encrypted
Content-Disposition: attachment

Version: 1

--v9Ux+11Zm5mwPlX6

Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="msg.asc"

****************************************************************

After decryption, the ciphertext results in an embedded MIME message, which in
turn contains an attachment.

The embedded message is displayed after decryption, including the attachment
which is shown as a link the message window, but the message structure view
displayed by kMail does not change and the attachment link is not effective,
clicking it is a no-op.

Actually there seems to be no way to save the deencrypted attachment using
kmail2. This worked file with kmail 1.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Receive an exncrypted message structures as described above.

Actual Results:  
An attachment is displayed as a link inside the message window, but the link
cannot be opened / downloaded. There does not seem to be any way to view or
save the attachment.

Expected Results:  
The link / attachment should be downloadable / saveable.

Was fixed on the KDE 4.7-branch according to bug 289534. Please merge the fix,
preferrably before KDE 4.8.1 is released, if it's not already too late...
