Details

While it is possible to drag one attachment to the desktop without incurring the "illegal" mouse pointer, the resulting object becomes a url, and not the actual attachment. Example: Email received with pdf attached. RMB on attached pdf and drag to desktop; drop. Result is url object, not the attached pdf. Attempting to drag multiple attachments results in a single url (possibly related to Bug 270292 or - perhaps dupe of - Bug 377621, though the latter appears to be related to Linux. Tested under: Mozilla/5.0 (OS/2; Warp 4.5; rv:10.0) Gecko/20120129 Firefox/10.0 SeaMonkey/2.7 and Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:10.0.1) Gecko/20120208 Firefox/10.0.1 SeaMonkey/2.7.1 (which is actually TB 10 on OS/2)
Summary: Unable to drag and drop attachments to desktop or folder and maintain proper file type → Drag and drop of attachment to desktop or folder becomes url object
Sorry OS/2 is no longer an offcially supported platform. Closing. Please reopen if you have this problem on other platforms with a current version.
