Bug ID: 379476
Summary: Renaming attachments should also change their
Content-Disposition/filename attribute
Product: kmail2
Version: 5.4.3
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: composer
Assignee: kdepim-b...@kde.org
Reporter: kdeb...@customcdrom.de
Target Milestone: ---
1) Attach a file to a message.
2) Right-click the attachment, choose Properties and change the attachment's
name.
Result: The "Content-Type" "name" attribute is changed, as follows:
Content-Type: application/pdf; name="new_name.pdf"
The "Content-Disposition" "filename" attribute stays unchanged, though:
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="orig_name.pdf"
Somewhat counter-intuitive, this will in most cases cause the attachment to be
called "orig_name.pdf" on the receiver's side, not "new_name.pdf" as one might
expect when using the properties dialog.
By default, the name and filename attributes are set to the same values by
kMail, as far as I can see.
Either the "name" field should change both values, or there should be a
separate "File Name" property.
Maybe interesting in this regard:
