97648 - Save Attachement doesn't see some directories.

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(MailNews Core :: Composition, defect)

Description

[Peter.Silva]

If I try to save attachments into a directory of my choosing, the file browsing
interface "edits" my choices.  That is, it does not show all entries in the
directory, so that I cannot save into the directory using the GUI. stupid 
trick: write the rest of the path name (including however many directories
you need) in the filename dialog, and that works.

What entries does it not show? Are you refering to dotfiles? (files starting
with a dot). If it's the latter one, then I agree that this is annoying.

Marking these all WORKSFORME sorry about lack of response but were very
overloaded here. Only reopen the bug if you can reproduce with the following steps:

1) Download the latest nightly (or 0.9.6 which should be out RSN)
2) Create a new profile
3) test the bug again

If it still occurs go ahead and reopen the bug. Again sorry about no response
were quite overloaded here and understaffed.
