Description Maciej Pilichowski 2006-11-29 11:17:39 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)

Note: composing only!

It would be a useful for user to attach for example kword file and just before hitting "send" to open it (via composer) just to check if everything is ok. Let's say the user spotted typo -- now, she/he should be able to correct it, save it -- this changes (should I mean) the real file and attachment, since attachment would be just "a link" to file (when composing only).

Currently, composer creates temporary files, so it is not productive for the user.

The sending mail should be this point for making "copy" of attachment -- since there should be now two versions of doc. Current one, editable, and the sent (without for example latest changes).
