When downloading an attachment in Yahoo mail with spaces or underscores in the
filename, the filename is truncated at the first space or underscore.

Reproducible: Always

2.  Click download attachment

Actual Results:  
Download dialog lists truncated name.  For example, "Hello_World_Attachment.doc"

Bug also recorded in another application (Evangalist), bug #252309.

My settings for download are to check everytime to see if I want to open or
save.  And to save to the Desktop automatically once I click save.

Duplicate of bug 252309.

Evangalism means Yahoo should be told they should change things at their side.
