Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evolution

In previous versions of Evolution (2.26, though possibly 2.24 - I don't
have either to test just now) it was possible to drag an attachment from
one email message to a new email message being composed.

With the current version, if I drag an attachment from the attachment
list of a message viewer or a message composer and drop it on a message
composer's attachment list - nothing happens. There is no error message
and the file being dragged is not attached to the new email.

This feature is very useful when I'm writing a new email to someone and
I need to attach a file another person sent me in an email. With
previous versions I could simply locate the correct email and drag the
attachment from there. With the current version I have to save the
attachment to disk, find it using the "open file dialog" from "Add
attachment" on the new email composer, and lastly find the file using
the file browser and delete it.
