Could you elaborate what you mean by > "the wrong thing", please? Yes, this is a problem/bug with the current behavior of these fake inline parts, actually. The button should behave as those it is representing an actual MIME part of the message. However, clicking the button saves the entire part that the fake part is derived from, rather than just the data in the fake part. This is countereintuitive and confusing. > I don't think the user would want to have an "inline: " prefix in the > filename that would have to be removed every time. I think that kind of > defeats the purpose here. Or where exactly are you proposing to have the > prefix? It's confusing to have this fake part button look just like a real part button, without any indication that it's really a fake part, and then to behave differently as well. The button needs some indication that it does not represent a real mime part of the message. Giving the fake part a proper filename is fine, but it needs some other indicator that the part is fake and that the button is not going to behave as expected. jamie. --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJO+NtLAAoJEO00zqvie6q8hXcP/3mNEJ0v6qgHJOYu9+/AnpvN Qz5nvViB3D7cLirxPMsbfslN81WuLegFPsbscAmElH9e/0PdlL6yp2uisfnGQgF+ NPmy3x7sbmwkU5TutJodwUbjQiTboYuMuu9rVEWie8cFJvBNakrQ+3QAAdOMoUlv z7EojhLr96g9lApSwwqvQKbUOkDfffgECAqCbvNmSk78tlptnsMeH84ZxqT1IR+t xcp6FDG48Dyj8BgxihQuPUaDQQWkSBjtlFjbBVIvgx8M8gEvM2nrzvMDito4Ai8l YI9EaOAGHvf64Kf+n+IEKiLUSLDBEriAQi5xtChzb1wvF8BCrxLn/MyDF532fDTB R55RjlvoHNmGpcOsorF8+3sseNDnEW/pfdHaZhFxNXS/LGVCBNa8vfwOl1eQIgAa +yBf9nATcq3Eo0BWH1xU0sdWYmhIbaV/qHIBujHw6YhYHIi4r5AcG1YbD+EESNxE /SK22180RQL1P63cAmIfu+PwLIHl+ZK43Ini0TDybckQUnsLrAxFcOLRLpJKNdDv Y63YNjlPgAs7n2csz6GarcRK/s+48eTRijzFIsmiCdnWLkcSJUeX85uCTl3/WzCn UeSFzxP/BvmIcrT7LA9AQERE77pK3vbJmBsfIvxV95lOayt2QyxE1fICYgIDr0rl 9bblqI8H8trvLnwR4TRV =DrTZ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
