on Fedora 34 with Evolution 3.40.0 (3.40.0-

(with wayland) i am not able to drag & drop attachments to the
compose
window. It doesnt matter if the attachment is dragged to message body
or the "attachment-bar".


Milan gave the correct hint in another thread: With the package/rpm
version, instead of the flatpak-version, its working just fine.


In a Flatpak or Snap sandbox the application cannot read just any file 
it wants.


I suspect Evolution is getting the attachment filename and attempting to 
just read it off disk. Which will not work in the sandbox. It has to go 
through some sort of portal process to get access to the file.


This is either an Evolution issue, or if Evolution has decided to never 
officially support sandboxing, a snap/flat packager issue.


It will probably be fixed automatically once Evolution ports to GTK-4.

There's this issue which links to a lot of other stuff:
