With linux trunk 2005032605, if I delete an attachment and then
1. save it individually (thunderbird only)
2. select multiple attachments and include the deleted one (seamonkey only)
3. "save all" (seamonkey and thunderbird)
it appears to attempt to actually save the file.  With SeaMonkey, I get a file
with the name "Deleted:filename". With Thunderbird, I get an alert that it was
unable to save the attachment.

Another/Simpler case for steps 2 and 3:
1. I (now) have an IMAP message with a deleted attachment.
2. I right click on its entry (Deleted:xyz.jpg) in the list

R. The 4 first commands for 'individual' attachment are disabled: good;
   But the 3 last commands for 'all' attachments are still active ... They
should not (as there is no other non-deleted attachments).

I experience the behaviour as mentioned in comment #1.

I think, from a usability perspective
- the deleted attachment should be greyed out (both icon and filename)
- you should not get a right-click pop-up at all

(The attachment isn't there anymore, so don't treat it like it is.)
sorry for the spam.  making bugzilla reflect reality as I'm not working on these bugs.  filter on FOOBARCHEESE to remove these in bulk.

This shouldn't be an issue on trunk, since bug 416284 disabled the relevant menus for deleted attachments.
