Using IMAP. Mail refuses to open attachment in any way using any command I can find. Just ignores request. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Expected Results: Ask me what to do with the attachment, or given an error message.
wftm 2002101422 on linux mandrake 9.0 and win 2k. If you select the message and CTRL-U it: does it display an attachement? are you sure your mail server / firewall is not blocking the message?
Reply to Patrick Hendriks I can save the attachmemt with a right-click + save. I cannot open the attachment with right-click + open, which does nothing. Also double-clicking the attachment does nothing. CTRL-U does show the attachement.
