(In reply to comment #1) > in bug 531777 pressing the open button saves the attachments. When I click open button nothing happened. It is the main problem.
Bug 531777 is reported against Mac OS X, this one against Linux. Worksforme on Windows XP - Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.7) Gecko/20100119 Shredder/3.0.2pre Can someone confirm this bug on Linux?

You haven't pressed Ctrl+L in the gtk folder picker dialog by any chance? If you're in the mode that the folder path is showing, try the "normal" mode - the picker mode with path showing has odd and buggy behavior on selection - that's not a mozilla bug but a gtk bug though. As for the save all folder picker confirm-button saying Open, that's just the way it is... http://mxr.mozilla.org/comm-central/source/mailnews/base/src/nsMessenger.cpp#938
When I pressed Ctrl+L then click Open the attachments are saved. Please ignore this bug. Thank you! Best Regards, Syrius
->INVALID then (gtk bug)

-> REOPEN .. Ctrl+L doesn't work at least at Manjaro Linux with KDE/Plasma.
Seems that either the GTK bug isn't solved right now .. or that it hasn't been a GTK bug but a different understanding of the dialog.
