In attach file dialog, files many files can be attached to e-mail (shift-click,
ctrl-click). Attaching up to 5 files works fine. Attaching more than 5 files
fails, no attachments are actualy attached nor displayed in the 'Attachments' field.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Compose mail
2. Select Attach
3. Select more than 5 files and press Open
Actual Results:  
1. The Attacments window/field/box remains empty

Expected Results:  
1. The Attachments window/box/field should have contained names of the selected
files

This seems to depend on the filenames (longer filenames (with spaces) do not
attach, while shorter filenames attach).
