Sorry but this is not really a duplicate of Bug 448569.  I have an email which contains a *.eml file - an entire forwarded email. When I open that *.eml file to display the email and then want to save that it does not work. The option to save as - > *FILE* or *TEMPLATE* are greyed out.

This has nothing to do with saving ordinary attachments.

Thanks.

This looks more like bug 204350 to me. Several functions available in the regular mail window are not implemented for message attachments yet.
