Description Todor Zviskov 2004-07-29 21:18:35 UTC
Files, attached to an email from mozilla's mail client (mozilla -mail) lose their name and extension. I sent an attached `something.zip' file and the other party received attachment called `noname'. I verified the behavior by sending an email from evolution using the same settings and the filename was ok.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Write an email
2. Attach file
3. Recipient always receives attachment called noname

Actual Results:  
Recipient always receives attachment called noname

Expected Results:  
Recipient receives attachment with the same name as the the original file

Stale bug, reopen if this is still an issue with up-to-date mozilla versions.
