256097 - Can not save Multipart Usenet attachments

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 60981

(MailNews Core :: Attachments, defect)

Description

[Brook Harty]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8a3) Gecko/20040817

Mozilla Mail does not save multi-part usenet attachments. Might not also save 
multi-part email attachment either, have not tested.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select a post in alt.binaries.pictures.motorcycles.harley with multi-part 
attachments (1/2) and (2/2)
2. Select both files
3. Save attachment, only saves first half.

Actual Results:  
Should be able to select first file and save attachment, and mozilla saves the 
whole multipart attachment. It should error if not all attachments are there. 
Or at least manually select the attachments and save in 1 file. 

Expected Results:  
Saves only the first partial attachment, a part of a file.

I'm sure this should be a open issue or future enhancement, but couldn't find 
an open bug.
