1326484 - Filelink: impossible to upload 2 files with the same name (with Box)

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Thunderbird :: FileLink, defect)

Description

[P B]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:50.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/50.0
Build ID: 20161208153507

Steps to reproduce:

Hi, 
I'm using Thunderbird 45.6.0.
Let's consider I have a file named 'test.txt' on my hard disk.
Now I compose a new message. I click on 'Attach' --> 'Filelink' --> 'Box', I browse to 'test.txt', and the upload to Box begins. The first time it's successful; I can send my mail. Then I compose a new message, for example with a different recipient. Again, I click on 'Attach' --> 'Filelink' --> 'Box', I browse to 'test.txt', and the upload to Box begins; but this time it fails. The attachment switchs to a 'normal' attachment (no more a 'Filelink attachment').


Actual results:

The upload to Box by Filelink of a file whose name was already been uploaded by Filelink, fails.
The attachment switchs to a 'normal' attachment (no more a 'Filelink attachment').


Expected results:

The upload should be successful; Filelink should be able to manage files with the same name.
