Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0; en-US; rv:0.9.1) Gecko/20010620, imap server Downloaded Messages with Attachements shouldn't have to be Re-Downloaded if Another Operation is used (e.g. save attachment, then copy message to local folder). When i have a message with an attachment and save the attachment to disk, the attachment is downloaded from the server. Why then does the message (including attachment) have to be *re-downloaded* when i copy/move the message from my online imap folder to a local folder. It seems silly to make the user wait for the download twice. There must be some way to make the cache smart enough to know that it already downloaded that message 2 minutes ago.
Reporter: Is this still a problem with mozilla 0.9.4 ?

Yes, it is still a problem using build 2001-10-03, windoze. I saved a large attachment (1.8 MB) to disk from my IMAP inbox and then dragged the mail to my local folders, which downloaded the attachment a second time. -> Very inefficient and time-consuming doing the same thing twice.
Keywords: mozilla0.9.6
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.
