This is a file handling issue.

Actually, when reporting bug #120957 of which this bug has been marked a
duplicate of, I first searched for the keywords "save" and "network" and came
accross this bug. I tested this on windows 98 SE (saving an attachment to a
windows network share) and it worked.

This Bug IS NOT a duplicate of 120957 in my opinion as saving attachments to a
network share works fine.

This WFM with build 2002012008 on W2K and for reporter of bug 120957 (thanks,
Michael) with build 2002011803 on W98. 

As pointed out by Michael, this is no dupe of bug 120957 ->Reopening.
Mike, can you still reproduce this problem using a recent build?

Marking worksforme because a response was requested from the reporter (mike
lima) but there has been no reply for over a month and this is wfm on 2002041603
2k. I suspect that the component is wrong to - surely attachments are Mail and News?
