When sending an email with an email format file as an attachment, the
attachment is empty after successful sending.
Repeat steps:
1. Click the "Compose" button to write an email.
2. After you have filled in the right recipient, subject line and body of the
email, click the "Attach File "button and the Attach file window will pop up.
3. In the Attachment file selection window, select a file in email format.
4. Click the send button. After successful sending, check the sent and received
messages in the mail client.
I have fixed this bug. The attachment is the patch.
