Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Thunderbird :: General, defect)

Description

[Robert Rothenberg]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-GB; rv:1.8.0.4) Gecko/20060608 Ubuntu/dapper-security Firefox/1.5.0.4

When detaching one file from a message with several attachments, later deciding to Detach All fails because one of the attachments is already deleted.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a message with more than one attachment.
2. Detach the first one.
   Note that the first attachment may or may not be marked as deleted!
3. Opt to Detach All.
4. When it asks to overwrite the first attachment, choose Ok.

Actual Results:  
It says that it is unable to etach the first one, and stops detaching. One has to manually detach each attachment.

Expected Results:  
It should have identified the first attachment as already detached and not tried to detach it.  Or at the very least, it should have said that there was an error and given an option to continue rather than just stop.

Reporter, does the issue still occur in the latest supported 2.0.0.x / Shredder trunk nightlies?

(1.5.0.x is now end-of-life and the latest supported 2.0.0.x is 2.0.0.17)
