User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win 9x 4.90; en-US; rv:1.0rc1) Gecko/20020417

When saving a non-inline attachment of the 
message located on an IMAP server with
right-clicking on the element of the attachment list 
and choosing "save as", no "file download progress window" appears,
but a "downloading message" progress bar appears 
in the status line of the frontend window.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
[assuming you have an IMAP mail account]
1. Open the Mozilla mail frontend
2. Send yourself a message with non-inline attachment(s)
3. Click on the new message's title in the Inbox
4. Right-click on an element of the attachment list, choose "save as"
5. In the "save as" dialog, choose the file name and click "OK"

Actual Results:  No "file download progress window" appear,
but a "downloading message" progress bar appears 
in the status line of the frontend window.

Expected Results:  Open a "file download progress window" that shows 
the download progress for the selected file.
Can you try to generate an imap log ?

I can second this report; I was just going to file a bug along the same vein;
that the window should be busied (cursor change) when saving an IMAP attachment
because its not obvious that closing the window will cancel the save (unlike
everywhere else in the program which uses the download manager).
resolving as WFM. Reopen if you can reproduce with a current build and provide
the log requested in comment 1
