Details

Using builds 2001-05-17 on win, mac and linux if you attach a file to a message, where the file name has spaces (bob on wire.jpg) and save it as a draft or template when you Edit the draft or template the file name for the attachment appears with %20 in the place of the space. (bob%20on%20wire.jpg). Sending after saving as draft or template sends with that strange file name. Note: on mac only, the %20 in the file name shows up in the message view too. 1. launch app 2. open mail 3. Compose a message to yourself and attach a file name with spaces in it (notice on all 3 platforms the file name looks OK at this point) 4. Save the message as a Template or Draft 5. Go to the template or draft folder where this message is located and select the message (On win and linux the file name looks OK, on Mac it has the %20 in the name) 6. Send the message to yourself and select the message (On all 3 platforms the attachment has the %20 in the file name). The attachments open up OK, but doing a Save As... lists the wrong name Note, Just sending a mail msg with an attachment file name with spaces displays OK in the message pane. But if you Edit as New Or Forward Inline the %20 shows up in the file name.
I am seeing the same behaviour saving attachments on my Mac using 0.9.1 (Build ID: 2001060712). Hoping to see an estimate or discussion on when it will get fixed. Thanks.
